Chronic intramuscular calcific tendinitis of the deltoid muscle.
Article in Skeletal radiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Calcific tendinitis is a potentially symptomatic disorder characterized by calcium deposits in the substance of the tendon. Although this condition can occur in any tendinous tissue throughout the human body, calcium deposition commonly occurs at tendon insertions near the bone-tendon junction. The musculotendinous junction of the deltoid muscle has peculiarly dense intramuscular tendons to which muscle fibers attach obliquely to create muscular strength. Given that the intramuscular tendons themselves, which form the consecutive part from the insertion, are subjected to unpredictable stress load or microtrauma similar to tendon insertions, it is reasonable to assume that calcific tendinitis could also occur at the intramuscular tendons. Here we report a case of chronic symptomatic calcium deposition in the lateral part of the deltoid muscle between the origin and the insertion, which was eventually surgically removed and confirmed as intramuscular calcific tendinitis.
