Osteonecrosis of the Humeral Head Following Arthroscopic Repair of Rotator Cuff Tears: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: The osteonecrosis and the collapse of the humeral head may have many risk factors such as trauma, alcoholism, metabolic diseases, and corticosteroid therapy. Otherwise, it was described as a rare complication of shoulder arthroscopy in the past few years. Case Report: We report the case of a 65-year-old right-handed woman who had a rotator cuff tear of the right shoulder. She underwent a double-row arthroscopic repair. Six months later she had an intense shoulder pain, with radiological and MRI signs of humeral head osteonecrosis. The patient had a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Conclusion: The aim of this case report is to underline the diagnostic particularities of this complication, and to shed light on the pathogenesis of the interruption of blood supply in the humeral head following rotator cuff repair. We also discuss the management of this complication with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
