The Destiny of the Subscapularis Tendon after Arthroscopic Supraspinatus Repair.
Article in Clinics in orthopedic surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the changes in untreated subscapularis in patients who underwent supraspinatus repair and to evaluate the factors related to the changes in the subscapularis. Methods: A cohort of patients who underwent isolated supraspinatus repair with preservation of the subscapularis was reviewed. Changes in the subscapularis, including any newly formed lesion and aggravation of an existing lesion, were evaluated 12 months postoperatively on magnetic resonance imaging along with an examination to identify causative factors after supraspinatus repair. Clinical scores were compared between patients with and without subscapularis changes. Results: A total of 528 patients were reviewed. Changes in the subscapularis, including newly formed lesions and aggravation of an existing lesion, were shown in 90 patients (17.0%). Upon regression analysis, changes in the subscapularis were associated with the initial existence of a subscapularis lesion (grade I: Conclusions: Untreated asymptomatic subscapularis may undergo morphological changes even after repair of the torn supraspinatus. Preoperative subscapularis lesions, biceps long head pathology, and retears of the repaired supraspinatus were associated with subscapularis pathology in patients who underwent supraspinatus repair.
