[Immobilization by external rotation after primary traumatic shoulder dislocation].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Immobilization of the shoulder following dislocation and reduction is traditionally carried out using internal rotation braces. However, high recurrence rates of up to 96% may result depending on several concomitant intrinsic and extrinsic prognostic factors, such as age and level of physical activity. Recently, different cadaveric and radiologic studies have suggested an improved tissue apposition of the affected labroligamentous structures in a better anatomic position during external rotation of the humeral head. Recent clinical outcome studies have supported the hypothetical benefit of this immobilization technique. Significantly lower recurrent dislocation rates and a better anatomic positioning of the affected structures were observed after immobilization in external rotation compared to immobilization in internal rotation.However, the number of available studies in this respect is still limited. Further prospective evidence is therefore desirable to evaluate the contribution of exact positioning of the immobilization, influence of hemarthros and specific capsulolabral lesions to the long-term clinical and radiological outcome of this new concept of immobilization.
