Subacromial injection of hydrolyzed collagen in the symptomatic treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy: an observational multicentric prospective study on 71 patients.
Article in JSES international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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: The purpose of the present observational multicentric prospective study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new infiltration device (CHondroGrid, Bioteck S.p.A, Arcugnano, Italy) based on hydrolyzed collagen in the treatment of rotator cuff tendinopathy. Methods: Seventy-one patients (53.3 ± 11.6 years old) affected by rotator cuff tendinopathy were treated in 2021 with two subacromial injections of CHondroGrid at 13 ± 2.9 days apart. The outcomes measured were the visual analog scale (VAS) score (in movement, during the night, and at rest), the Constant Score, the Simple Shoulder Test, and patient satisfaction. The outcome variables were measured before each injection, at 1 month and at 6 months after the last injection. Results: The treatment was significantly effective from the first injection and up to the six-month follow-up. At the last follow-up, the VAS score on movement had improved by 71% ( Conclusions: CHondroGrid resulted in a safe and effective treatment in pain relief and for the functional recovery of rotator cuff tendinopathy.
