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

The infraspinatus muscle is a component of the rotator cuff; the latissimus dorsi muscle is the largest muscle of the back. These muscles are not considered very morphologically variable. However, the latissimus dorsi has more frequent variations than the infraspinatus. During anatomical dissection, an additional muscle structure was found. It originated on the medial border of the scapula, ran under the scapular spine, and ended on the greater tubercle next to the infraspinatus attachment. We will discuss the anatomical and physiological relationships of this muscle. We believe that our finding underlines the importance of different muscle variants in the rotator cuff region. Level of evidence: II basic science research.
