Concomitant intra-articular glenohumeral injuries in displaced fractures of the lateral clavicle.
Article in Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo detect concomitant intra-articular glenohumeral injuries, in acute displaced fractures of the lateral clavicle, initially missed due to unfeasible clinical evaluation of the acutely injured shoulder.
methodsAll patients suffering from an acute displaced lateral clavicle fracture with indication to surgical treatment underwent diagnostic shoulder arthroscopy prior to open reduction and internal fixation. In case of therapy-relevant intra-articular glenohumeral injuries, subsequent surgical treatment was performed.
resultsIntra-articular injuries were found in 13 of 28 patients (46.4 %) with initially suspected isolated lateral clavicle fracture. Additional surgical treatment was performed in 8 of 28 cases (28.6 %). Superior labral anterior-posterior (SLAP) lesions were observed in 4 of 28 patients (14.3 %; SLAP II a: 1; II b: 1; III: 1; and IV: 1). Lesions of the pulley system were found in 3 of 28 patients (10.7 %; Habermeyer III°). One partial articular supraspinatus tendon avulsion lesion (3.6 %) and one lesion of the subscapularis tendon (3.6 %; Fox and Romeo II°) were observed.
conclusionsTraumatic concomitant glenohumeral injuries in lateral clavicle fractures seem to be more frequent than expected in general. Subsequent surgical treatment of these formerly missed but therapy-relevant injuries may increase functional outcome and reduce complication rate. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.
