A Step-by-Step Approach to Arthroscopic Repair of Massive Rotator Cuff Tears.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Arthroscopic repair of massive rotator cuff tears can be technically challenging but is achievable in many cases. Performing adequate releases are important for successful tendon mobility and avoiding excessive tension in the final repair, thus restoring the native anatomy and biomechanics. This Technical Note provides a step-by-step approach to release and mobilize massive rotator cuff tears to or near anatomical tendon footprints.
