Revision Rotator Cuff Repair With Versus Without an Arthroscopically Inserted Onlay Bioinductive Implant in Workers' Compensation Patients.

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 addition of onlay biological grafts to augment difficult rotator cuff repairs has shown encouraging results in a case series. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to determine whether the addition of an onlay bioinductive implant would improve repair integrity, shear wave elastographic appearance of the repaired tendon and patch, and patient-rated and/or surgeon-measured shoulder function when used in workers' compensation patients undergoing revision arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. We hypothesized that the addition of the bioinductive implant would enhance repair integrity and clinical outcomes compared with standard repair. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A post hoc matched-cohort study was conducted on prospectively recruited workers' compensation patients who received a bioinductive implant for revision rotator cuff repair (n = 19). The control group was selected from consecutive workers' compensation revision rotator cuff repair patients before the introduction of bioinductive implants. Then, they were matched for age and tear size (n = 32). Kaplan-Meier curves were generated to compare the primary outcome of repair integrity between groups. The secondary outcomes were to evaluate the elastographic appearance of the tendon and patch in the bioinductive implant group and to compare patient-rated and surgeon-measured shoulder function between groups preoperatively and at 1 week, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. Results: No major complications associated with the bioinductive implants were identified. Six months after the revision rotator cuff repair, the retear rate in the bioinductive implant group was 16% (3/19), compared with 19% (6/32) in the age- and tear size-matched control group ( Conclusion: There were no differences in repair integrity or clinical outcomes between workers' compensation patients who underwent revision arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with an onlay bioinductive implant compared to those who underwent standard revision rotator cuff repair.
