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

Treatment of full-thickness rotator cuff tears vary in surgical technique dependent on the amount of retraction of the rotator cuff and/or delamination of the soft tissue. The described technique addresses both of those concerns. We present a modification of the SpeedBridge technique used to address retracted or delaminated repairs and effectively expand the indications for use of the double-row knotless technique. In this modification, the reduction is performed by an initial anchor with several stay sutures providing provisional reduction of the tissue in a controlled fashion. This is followed by compression through a standard double-row technique.
