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

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to compare clavicular tunnel complications after coracoclavicular (CC) reconstruction between a coracoid loop fixation group and a coracoid tunnel fixation group. We hypothesized that clavicular tunnel complications would be more common in the coracoid loop group.

methodsThis retrospective study evaluated 24 patients who underwent CC reconstruction using coracoid tunnel fixation (n = 14) and coracoid loop fixation (n = 10). Radiographic measurements included the CC distance and clavicular tunnel diameter. Clavicular tunnel complications such as tunnel widening and clavicular tunnel fractures were investigated. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder score and the University of California at Los Angeles Shoulder score.

resultsThe mean follow-up period was 17.5 months (range, 11-38 months). The final clavicular tunnel diameter and the increase in the clavicular tunnel diameter in millimeter and percentage were significantly greater in the coracoid loop group than in the coracoid tunnel group (all

conclusionsClavicular tunnel complications such as significant tunnel widening and fractures after CC reconstructions in acromioclavicular dislocations were common with the coracoid loop fixation technique. A greater clavicular tunnel widening and resultantly enlarged tunnel diameter might increase the risk of fracture through the clavicular tunnel.
