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: In reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), the ideal combination of baseplate lateralization (BL), glenosphere size (GS), and glenosphere overhang (GOH) with a commonly used 145° neck shaft angle (NSA) is unclear. This is the first study evaluating correlations of body height (BH), humeral head size (HS), glenoid height (GH), and association of gender with best glenoid configurations for range of motion (ROM) maintaining anatomic lateralization (aLAT) for optimized muscle length in 145° and less distalized 135° RSA. Methods: In this computer model study, 22 computed tomographies without joint narrowing were analyzed (11 male/female). A standardized semi-inlay 145° platform stem was combined with 20 glenoid configurations (baseplate [B] 25, 25 + 3/+6 lateralized [l], 29, 29 + 3/6l combined with glenosphere 36, 36 + 2 eccentric [e], 36 + 3l, 39, 39 + 3e, 39 + 3l , 42, 42 + 4e). Abduction-adduction, flexion-extension, external rotation-internal rotation, total ROM (TROM), and total notching relevant (TNR) ROM were computed, best TROM models respecting aLAT (-1 mm to +1 mm) and HS/GH recorded. Second, the 145° models (Ascend Flex stem; Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI, USA) were converted and compared to a 135° inlay RSA (New Perform stem; Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI, USA) maintaining GOH (6.5-7 mm) and aLAT. Results: Best 145° models had eccentric glenospheres (mean BL: 3.5 mm, GOH 8.8 mm, GS 38.1 mm, distalization 23 mm). The 135° models had concentric glenospheres, mean BL 3.8 mm, GOH 6.9 mm, GS 39.7 mm, and distalization 14.1 mm. HS showed the strongest positive correlation with BL in 145° and 135° models (0.65/0.79). Despite reduced GOH in smaller females with a 135° NSA, adduction, external rotation, extension, TNR ROM, and TROM were significantly increased ( Conclusion: HS is a practical measure in surgery or preoperatively, and the strong positive correlation with BL is a useful planning aid. Despite reduction of GOH, conversion to a less distalized 135° NSAinlay design is powerful to maintain and even significantly increase all components of TNR ROM (extension/external rotation/adduction) in small females with the drawback of reduced abduction which may however be compensated by scapula motion. Lateralization with a less distalized 135° RSA optimizes muscle length, may facilitate subscapularis repair, and maintains highest rigid body motion.
