Can We Completely Trust in Automated Software for Preoperative Planning of Shoulder Arthroplasty? Software Update May Modify Glenoid Version, Glenoid Inclination and Humeral Head Subluxation Values.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of software updating on measurements of the glenoid inclination and version, along with humeral head subluxation performed by an automated 3D planning program. The hypothesis was that the software update could significantly modify the values of the glenoid inclination and version, as well as of the humeral head subluxation.
methodsA comprehensive pool of 76 shoulder computed tomography (CT) scans of patients who underwent total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) were analyzed with the automated program Blueprint in 2018 and again in 2020 after a software update.
resultsA statistically significant difference of 8.1 ± 8.2 and 5.4 ± 7.8 (mean difference of -2.8 ± 5.0,
conclusionThe present study shows the software update of an automated preoperative planning program may significantly modify the values of glenoid inclination. Even though without a significant difference, variations were also found for the glenoid version and humeral head subluxation. Accordingly, these results should further advise surgeons to carefully and critically evaluate data acquired with automated software.
