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

Rotator cuff tear and periarthritic shoulder is a concomitant condition. In this study, both were managed with single stage arthroscopic Capsular release and rotator cuff repair and its functional outcome was evaluated till one year postoperatively. 58 patients diagnosed clinically, radiologically by MRI and arthroscopically were included. Mean constant shoulder score preoperatively was 32.6 and at one year postoperatively 78.5. Mean SPADI preoperatively was 72.1% which decreased to 20.7% at one year postoperatively. These improvements were statistically significant (p < 0.001). Thus this single stage procedure is effective for patients having rotator cuff tear in periarthritic shoulder.
