Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for Proximal Humerus Fracture.
Review in Current reviews in musculoskeletal medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 35 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to examine trends, outcomes, and principles in treatment of proximal humerus fractures in the elderly with a critical focus on reverse shoulder arthroplasty as a developing treatment option. RECENT
findingsRecent literature shows an increase in reverse shoulder arthroplasty and a decrease in hemiarthroplasty performed for proximal humerus fractures. More predictable outcomes and lower revision rates are seen in older individuals treated primarily or secondarily with reverse shoulder arthroplasty compared to those treated with hemiarthroplasty. We report current and historical treatments, outcomes, and principles in reverse shoulder arthroplasty for treatment of complex, displaced proximal humerus fractures in older individuals (≥ 65 years old).
