Bilateral Posterior Four-Part Fracture-Dislocation of the Proximal Humerus After First-Time Seizure.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
This report presents a previously undescribed case and treatment of bilateral four-part proximal humerus (PH) fracture-dislocations presented in a 61-year-old Caucasian male patient following a first-time seizure episode. The patient was treated with bilateral reverse total shoulder arthroplasty due to pre-existing glenohumeral arthritis and rotator cuff atrophy. The surgery was successful, and the patient's postoperative recovery was uneventful. Fractures of the proximal humerus are a relatively common adult osteoporotic fracture; however, posterior fracture-dislocations of the PH, frequently related to motor vehicle accidents, seizures, or electrical shock, are remarkably scarce. A treatment algorithm for these injuries is lacking.
