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

Rotator cuff tear is a common injury among middle-aged and elderly people, and it has a great impact on patients' physical and mental health and quality of life. Integrative medicine based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has certain advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of rotator cuff tears. TCM, which mainly involves the use of plant-based products, has relatively stable and reliable curative effects. It is of great significance to formulate a combined diagnosis and treatment plan for rotator cuff tear based on evidence-based medicine, which can help to standardize the clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques of TCM and Western medicine and achieve better therapeutic effects. This guideline standardizes the diagnosis and treatment process of rotator cuff tear from the aspects of range, terminology and definition, diagnosis, TCM syndrome differentiation, treatment, functional exercise, and prevention and care. It makes recommendations that cover the adoption of manual therapy, acupuncture, and other integrative medicine based on TCM. Users of these guidelines are most likely to include clinicians and health managers in healthcare settings.
