Fracture-Specific and Conventional Stem Designs in Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for Acute Proximal Humerus Fractures-A Retrospective, Observational Study.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Tuberosity healing and stem design can be outcome-dependent parameters in hemiarthroplasty for proximal humerus fractures (PHF). The relevance of fracture-specific stem design in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is still a matter of debate. This retrospective study evaluates tuberosity healing and function for fracture specific stems (A) compared to conventional stems (B) in RSA for complex PHF in 26 patients (w = 21, mean age 73.5 years). Clinically, range of motion (ROM), Constant-Murley-Score (CS), Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), and external rotation lag signs (ERLS) were evaluated. Healing of greater tuberosity (GT) and lesser tuberosity (LT), scapular notching, and loosening were examined radiologically. There were no statistical significant differences with regards to CS (A: 73 ± 11; B: 77 ± 9 points), SSV (A: 78% ± 11%; B: 84% ± 11%), external rotation (A: 18° ± 20°; B: 24° ± 19°), or internal rotation (A: 5.7 ± 2.2; B: 6.7 ± 2.8 CS-points) (
