Prevalence and grade of scapular dyskinesis in patients with shoulder injuries: a cross-sectional study.
Article in JSES international, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Scapular dyskinesis (SD) is an impairment that can be associated with shoulder injuries; however, its prevalence and grade has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the prevalence and grade of SD in patients with shoulder injury. Methods: In total, 210 patients with shoulder injury participated in this study between May and July 2023. Shoulder injuries were diagnosed, and SD was assessed in injured and noninjured shoulders. The shoulder injury duration was also assessed. Results: In total, 205 patients (97.6%) had SD with injured shoulders, and 115 patients (54.7%) had Grade 3. Among the noninjured shoulders, 69% (n = 145) had SD and 6.7% (n = 14) had Grade 3. Patients with a duration of shoulder symptom >6 years had an incidence of Grade 3 of 100%. Conclusion: The prevalence of SD was significantly high in injured shoulders compared with noninjured shoulders. Moreover, the grade of SD in injured shoulders was severe compared with that in noninjured shoulders. SD may increase dysfunction in injured shoulders; therefore, it is recommended to assess and treat SD in patients with shoulder injury.
