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 "postage stamp fracture" is an anterior glenoid rim fracture following arthroscopic repair of a Bankart lesion. Often occurring at the time of an acute trauma, a fracture line propagates though the previous Bankart repair anchor sites, resulting in recurrent anterior instability of the glenohumeral joint. The resultant glenoid rim fracture edge gives a similar appearance as the edge of a stamp, with the osseous edge having the classic "perforation" pattern. When patients present with a postage stamp fracture, even in the setting of subcritical glenoid bone loss, we believe that additional soft-tissue stabilization procedures and/or fracture fixation pose a significant risk of failure. In our opinion, a Latarjet procedure is recommended in a majority of patients with a postage stamp fracture for restoration of glenohumeral stability. The procedure offers a reliable, reproducible surgical intervention that controls for many of the factors that can make arthroscopic revision unreliable, such as poor bone quality, adhesions, labral degeneration, and bone loss. Here, we outline our preferred surgical technique to restore glenohumeral stability using the Latarjet procedure for a patient with a postage stamp fracture.
