Arthroscopic Bone Grafting of the Humeral Head for Treatment of a Deep Hill-Sachs Lesion.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation often leads to the presence of a Hill-Sachs lesion. A large Hill-Sachs lesion compromises shoulder stability and should be addressed with bone augmentation when it is too deep. Here, we introduce a method of arthroscopic bone grafting of the humeral head for the treatment of a deep Hill-Sachs lesion in patients with anterior shoulder instability. Our indication for this procedure is a deep off-track Hill-Sachs lesion measuring at least 8 mm in depth and 10 mm in width. The main steps of this procedure include graft placement via special shoulder bone grafting instruments, graft suspension fixation using suture anchors, and bone fragment compression using the infraspinatus tendon. We routinely use this technique in combined treatment procedures for complicated anterior shoulder instability.
