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

Ultrasound (US) is a reliable non-invasive method to image the rotator cuff tendons. Even though glenoid labral pathology is common, it is not routinely looked at as part of the shoulder ultrasound protocol. Currently, the gold standard for labral imaging remains MR arthrography. However, given the rather long waiting list and cost implications, US may be used as a modality to quickly screen the shoulder for gross labral pathology. Whilst there is relative paucity of the literature outlining labral pathology on US, there is none correlating sonographic and corresponding MRI appearances. We present a pictorial review highlighting scanning positioning, US and corresponding MRI appearances of a normal labrum and various labral pathologies. We discuss useful scanning tips and characteristic US signs which can help the radiologist.
