Tennis overuse injuries in the upper extremity.
Review in Skeletal radiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
objectiveTennis is a popular sport with high levels of participation. This article aims to describe how upper extremity overuse injuries occur in relation to tennis biomechanics and to review their imaging characteristics and implications for management. In particular, we will review the imaging patterns of internal impingement, scapular dyskinesis, lateral and medial epicondylitis, ulnar collateral ligament insufficiency, valgus extension overload, capitellar osteochondritis dissecans, extensor carpi ulnaris tendinosis and instability, tenosynovitis, triangular fibrocartilage complex injuries, and carpal stress injuries.
conclusionTennis is a complex and physically demanding sport with a wide range of associated injuries. Repetitive overloading commonly leads to injuries of the upper extremity. An understanding of the underlying mechanisms of injury and knowledge of these injury patterns will aid the radiologist in generating the correct diagnosis in both the professional and recreational tennis athlete.
