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

backgroundBone benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH) is an invasive primary bone tumor. When the local excision is not complete, the risk of recurrence is high, and hence, one-piece resection is necessary. The major challenge for clinicians is to reconstruct the bone after resection of the tumor. The present study investigated the efficacy of 3-dimensional (3D) printing technique in the treatment of benign fibrous histiocytoma of the scapula.

methodsThe patient with benign fibrous histiocytoma of scapular bone was treated with PEEK (polyetheretherketone) prosthesis replacement using the 3D printing technique. X-ray and computed tomography (CT) scans evaluated the relationship between the position of the prosthesis and that of the shoulder joint. Also, the constant score of the shoulder joint was calculated.

resultsThe anteroposterior radiograph showed that the position of the left scapula prosthesis is satisfactory and that of the shoulder joint is normal. Three months after the operation, the X-ray examination indicated the lack of flexibility and shift, as well as, dislocation and disjunction of PEEK prosthesis. The constant score of the left shoulder function was 68 points. Active shoulder joint activity: 120° on the lift, 90° on abduction, 50° on the external rotation, and 70° on internal rotation.

conclusionsThe application of 3D-printed PEEK scapula prosthesis with total shoulder replacement offers the possibility of accurate reconstruction, improves the operability of surgery, shortens the operation time, and allows early functional recovery of the patients.
