Rotator Cuff Repair Using a Needle Arthroscope Through a Dual-Lumen Flexible Cannula.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The advent of arthroscopy in shoulder surgery has allowed for the development of minimally invasive techniques for the treatment of shoulder pathology. Further developments in needle arthroscopy have continued this trend toward less invasive shoulder surgery, allowing for decreased pain using smaller portals and decreased fluid irrigation through the shoulder joint during surgery. This technique describes a minimally invasive rotator cuff repair using a dual-lumen cannula that provides both direct visualization and direct instrument access to the pathology. This new cannula has the potential to further refine and to simplify needle arthroscopic techniques about the shoulder. With judicious patient selection, needle arthroscopy is a viable option for the treatment of common shoulder pathology.
