Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for Proximal Humerus Fractures: A Review of Current Evidence.
Review in Current reviews in musculoskeletal medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
purpose of reviewThe aim of this review is to summarize information published in the recent peer-reviewed literature on reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) for proximal humerus fractures. RECENT
findingsAlthough there is still some debate regarding which may be the best treatment for proximal humerus fractures in certain age ranges, RSA seems to offer more predictable results than other surgical treatments for elderly patients. Successful tuberosity healing seems to correlate with better outcomes. Recent trends indicate interest in cementless fixation, fracture-specific stems and a 135-degree polyethylene opening angle. RSA provides a successful surgical solution for selected proximal humerus fractures. Indications, design features, and surgical execution have continued to evolve over the last few years.
