1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: Synovial chondromatosis is a rare benign tumor involving the major joints. This condition results from metaplasia of synovium into chondrocytes leading to formation of multiple loose bodies. Extra articular glenohumeral joint synovial chondromatosis involving long head of biceps is very rare. Case Report: A 38-year-old male presented with history of insidious onset, dull aching pain in right shoulder for 6 months. Clinicoradiological examination revealed calcific mass around the long head of biceps tendon. The calcific mass and loose bodies were removed en bloc. Histopathological examination concurred to be synovial chondromatosis. Conclusion: We hereby report a rare case of long head biceps tendon synovial chondromatosis of shoulder which was successfully treated by combined arthroscopic and open method. The results of surgical excision are excellent.
