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
objectiveThere are various treatment modalities for bony Bankart lesions following glenohumeral joint dislocations. In this research, we aimed to compare the radiological and clinical results of patients who underwent the Latarjet procedure and iliac crest bone graft transfer. MATERIALS AND
methodsClinical and radiological data of 15 patients were retrospectively evaluated. Inclusion criteria were a history of at least two dislocations, being between 18-65 years of age and having at least 10% glenoid bone loss. The exclusion criteria were defined as follows: patients who underwent only soft tissue procedures, patients who did not attend the follow-up, patients with other pathology in the upper extremity (fracture, cuff tear, etc.), and patients with a follow-up period of less than 12 months time. Nine patients underwent the Latarjet procedure and six underwent iliac crest bone graft transfer. Clinical evaluation, age, gender, body mass index, range of motion, Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QDASH) score, Constant score, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score were evaluated. Radiographic evaluation was performed with preoperative and postoperative direct radiographs and computed tomography. Mann-Whitney U test, t-test, and Fisher exact tests were used for group comparisons.
resultsThe mean age of the patients was 32.6 years and the mean follow-up period was 24.9 months. When the two groups were compared, no statistical difference was found in terms of age, gender, body mass index, range of motion, Constant score, VAS score, glenoid cartilage stepping, and bone defect (p>0.05). The operation time was longer in the iliac crest bone graft transfer group compared to the Latarjet group (p<0.05).
conclusionLatarjet and iliac crest bone graft transfer can be used successfully in the treatment of bony Bankart in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations. The operation time is longer in iliac crest bone graft transfer compared to the Latarjet procedure.
