1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to meticulously observe the structures around the origin of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHB) in order to propose a method of anatomical superior labrum anterior and posterior repair.

methodsTwenty-eight shoulders of 16 cadavers with intact LHB origin were macroscopically investigated. Among them, 20 shoulders with an intact superior labrum were additionally observed, to determine whether the anterior edge of LHB on the labrum (point 'A') was anterior to the supraglenoid tubercle. Serial sections vertical to LHB were observed using ordinary light and polarized microscopy in three glenoids and scanning acoustic microscopy in one.

resultsThe labrum had a meniscal appearance, and no LHB fibre was sent anterior to the anterior edge of the supraglenoid tubercle. 'A' was not located more posterior than the supraglenoid tubercle. All specimens had the so-called 'the sheet-like structure', in which the portion closer to the LHB origin tends to be stiffer. Fibres of the sheet-like structure ran vertically to LHB.

conclusionFibre orientation and the stiffness of the sheet-like structure suggest its support of LHB. As LHB fibres do not anteriorly cross over 'A', 'A' could be a landmark for the anterior border of LHB, independent from the sheet-like structure. Considering a previous report mentioning that the horizontal mattress suture maintains the meniscus-like structure which might be sufficient for proper motion of the normal superior labrum, the horizontal mattress suture not crossing over 'A' should be recommended from the viewpoint of functional anatomy.
