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
Purpose: To evaluate whether an anatomic dry shoulder Dexter training model surgical simulator would be effective in augmenting orthopaedic residents' skills for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods: Nine residents, enrolled for this prospective study, watched a video presentation about transosseus equivalent (TOE) double-row, rotator cuff repair technique, repeating the aforementioned technique twice on the simulator. The time to complete all steps to final repair, as well as the quality of the final repair, were measured. Results: The data for repair completion time showed a statistically significant difference in the total duration time of performing the procedure, when comparing the timing in tests 1 and 2, demonstrating a reduced operative time. The qualitative data collected show an increase in the final score in 100% (9 out of 9) of the participants between the first and second tests, with an improvement in the average score of 16.4% (3.22 points with a standard deviation of 2.64). Hence, there is a statistically significant difference ( Clinical Relevance: In order to provide as many training opportunities as possible, an arthroscopy simulator could be used to supplement clinical arthroscopy skills training for orthopaedic residents.
