Incomplete glenoid ossification: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2024. 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
Ossification of the glenoid is a predictable developmental process in adolescents. However, a lack of knowledge of the variability of this process provides a challenge in discerning between normal adolescent development and shoulder pathology. We presented a case of a 15-year-old male with chronic intermittent right shoulder pain who was diagnosed with a labral tear based on presentation, physical exam, and magnetic resonance arthrogram. He subsequently underwent a diagnostic arthroscopy which revealed no evidence of labral or bony pathology and was instead concluded to have an incomplete ossification of the glenoid. His symptoms were assessed to be related to rotator cuff tendinitis, for which he underwent focused physical therapy which resulted in complete resolution of symptoms at his 1-month postoperative follow-up. Understanding the normal ossification process of the glenoid clinically and through imaging can help physicians recognize normal shoulder development and avoid misinterpretation of findings as pathology in adolescent patients.
