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

objectiveTo summarize the effectiveness of two-stage reverse total shoulder arthroplasty for treating postoperative deep infection after internal fixation of the proximal humeral fracture.

methodsBetween June 2014 and January 2018, 17 patients with deep infection and humeral head necrosis or bone nonunion after internal fixation of proximal humeral fractures were treated. There were 8 males and 9 females, aged from 52 to 78 years (mean, 63.8 years). The infection occurred at 19-66 months after the initial internal fixation (mean, 34.8 months). Microbial culture of joint fluid was positive in 14 cases and negative in 3 cases. The preoperative Constant score, American shoulder and elbow surgeons (ASES) score, and visual analogue scale (VAS) score were 36.41±8.65, 31.06±7.43, and 7.29±0.99, respectively. The preoperative ranges of forward flexion, abduction, external rotation were (45.88±12.46), (42.18±12.31), and (16.76±4.92)°, respectively. The preoperative range of internal rotation was buttock in 9 cases, lumbosacral joint in 3 cases, L

resultsAll the incisions healed primarily and no complications such as recurrent infection or vascular nerve injury occurred. All patients were followed up 15-32 months (mean, 22.0 months). At last follow-up, the ranges of forward flexion, abduction, and external rotation were (109.00±23.66), (98.53±16.92), (41.41±6.82)°, respectively; and the range of internal rotation was lumbosacral joint in 5 cases, L

conclusionTwo-stage reverse total shoulder arthroplasty is an effective treatment for the postoperative deep infection after internal fixation of the proximal humeral fracture, which has advantages of low risk of infection recurrence, good shoulder function, and satisfactory short-term effectiveness.
