Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty for treatment of ochronotic arthropathy.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Ochronotic arthropathy is a chronic manifestation of disease in patients with alkaptonuria. Connective tissue and large joint spaces accumulate discolored homogentisic acid aggregates, resulting in joint degeneration of the axial and appendicular skeleton. One case of right shoulder ochronotic osteoarthritis treated with joint replacement is presented. To our knowledge, this is the first reported surgical intervention of ochronotic arthropathy using the reverse total shoulder arthroplasty technique.
