Getting back in the game after humeral head resurfacing.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAim of this investigation was to analyze whether patients undergoing humeral head resurfacing (HHR) surgery are able to successfully return to their sports and occupation afterwards. MATERIALS AND
methodsFifty patients treated with CUP (HHR) arthroplasty were included. Two groups were built: Patients who have participated in sports less than 5 years prior surgery (Group 1: n = 42 (84%)) and patients who have never participated in sports (Group 2: n = 8 (16%)). Evaluation was based on a questionnaire asking for types of sports, frequency, time to return to sports and work as well as limitations in work life.
resultsMean age at the time of surgery was 58.6 (36-84) years in Group 1 and 65 (56-75) years in Group 2. Mean time follow-up was 5.5 years (2.5-12) years. Twenty-seven (64%) patients in Group 1 participated in sports right before surgery. Twenty-one patients (50%) returned to sports after surgery. The returning rate was 78%. Seven (17%) patients in Group 1 stated that the reason they underwent shoulder replacement surgery was to continue to participate in sports. Swimming and skiing were two of the most favorable sports. Two (4%) patients had to change their profession due to surgery. Most of the patients were retired at follow-up.
conclusionMost of the active patients undergoing HHR surgery are successfully able to return to their sports activities after surgery. Patients employed were able to return to their occupation after surgery. Many patients were already retired at the time of follow up.
