Home-Based Shi's Knee Daoyin Exercise for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial.
Trial report in Journal of pain research, 2024. 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
Objective: Shi's Knee Daoyin (SKD) exercise is a treatment derived from Traditional Chinese exercise (TCE) specifically designed for lower limb health care. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of conducting a randomized controlled trial to explore the effectiveness of SKD exercise in treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods: Participants were randomized to receive Health Education (HE) or SKD exercise. The primary outcomes were feasibility and safety outcomes, including participant recruitment rate, retention rate, as well as adherence to intervention. The secondary outcomes included Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores for pain, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, the 20-Meter Walk Test (20-MWT) and the 5-times Chair-Stand Test (5-CST). Results: The results indicate that out of 89 individuals invited to participate in the study, 72 were eligible and agreed to participate, resulting in a recruitment rate of 80.9%. All participating patients completed the follow-up and were included in the analysis; no patients dropped out of the study due to adverse events. The secondary outcome measures showed that after twelve weeks of treatment, the VAS score, WOMAC total score, WOMAC pain score, WOMAC stiffness score, and WOMAC function score of patients in the HE group and SKD group all improved, but the improvement was more significant in the SKD group. The 20-MWT of SKD group after treatment was significantly shorter than before treatment ( Conclusion: This study evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of home-based SKD exercise intervention in alleviating symptoms in patients with symptomatic KOA, providing valuable information for designing an appropriate randomized controlled study.
