Outcomes of different stem sizes in shoulder arthroplasty.
Article in Journal of orthopaedics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The successive refinement in implant design and operative technique alongwith improved understanding has resulted in increased incidence of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Simultaneously, the indications of TSA have widened and include a range of shoulder pathologies. Methods: Using the keywords and relevant literature, we have described an overview of the different stem sizes used in shoulder arthroplasty. Relevant description of clinical and radiological outcome is done with regards to different stem sizes. Discussion: There are plethora of shoulder replacement systems, based on unique philosophy and having their own advantages and disadvantages. Additionally, the rise in ageing population had increased the need for revision TSA, thereby necessitating the judicious choice of implant at primary TSA. We further present the role of cemented and uncemented humeral stems and discuss the findings of finite element analysis. The choice of humeral stem size and use of cemented or uncemented stems have been reported to affect the clinical and radiological outcomes.
