Clinical efficacy and tendon integrity of patients with subscapularis tear by the technique of arthroscopic single external row repair.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: With the development of arthroscopic technology and equipment, arthroscopy can effectively repair the tear of the subscapular muscle. However, it is difficult to expose the subscapular muscle and operate it under a microscope. In this study, the SwiveLock Purpose: This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy and the tendon integrity of patients who had subscapularis tears by adopting the single-row repair technique with a SwiveLock Methods: Patients who had the subscapular muscle tear either with or without retraction were included, and their follow-up time was at least 1 year. The degree of tendon injury was examined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and confirmed by arthroscopy. The tendon was repaired in an arthroscopic manner by utilizing the single-row technique at the medial margin of the lesser tuberosity. One double-loaded suture SwiveLock Results: In total, 110 patients, including 31 males and 79 females, with an average age of 68.28 ± 8.73 years were included. Arthroscopic repair of the subscapular tendon with SwiveLock Conclusion: In this study, we repaired the subscapularis muscle with a single-row technique fixed by SwiveLock
