Impact of depressive disorders on primary total shoulder arthroplasties: a matched control analysis of 113,648 Medicare patients.
Article in Shoulder & elbow, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
introductionThe purpose of this study was to investigate whether patients with depressive disorders undergoing primary total shoulder arthroplasty have higher rates of (1) in-hospital lengths of stay, (2) readmission rates, (3) medical complications, and (4) implant-related complications.
methodsA retrospective query was performed using a national claims database. Study group patients were matched to controls in a 1:5 ratio according to age, sex, and medical comorbidities. The query yielded 113,648 patients who were with (n = 18,953) and without (n = 94,695) depressive disorders. Pearson's χ
resultsStudy group patients had significantly longer in-hospital lengths of stay (2.7 days versus 2.3 days;
conclusionDepressive disorder patients have longer in-hospital lengths of stay and increased odds of readmissions and complications following primary total shoulder arthroplasty.
