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

Unilateral shoulder dislocation is known to be one of the most common joint dislocations. However, simultaneous bilateral shoulder dislocations are rare, especially anterior dislocations. We report a case of an 84-year-old woman who presented to the urgency room with symmetrical bilateral anterior shoulder dislocation 12 hours after falling on a treadmill. She presented with bilateral pain, functional impairment, prominent acromion, flattened shoulder, and, in the right upper limb, paresthesias on the dorsum of the hand and extension deficit of the fingers. Closed reduction of both shoulders was performed under sedation, and she was immobilized bilaterally with an arm sling in internal rotation. A full recovery was achieved six months after the injury.
