1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundEvaluation of glenoid bone loss following recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations is normally performed using cross sectional imaging.

objectivesTo assess how anteroposterior (AP) and Bernageau view radiographs compare to computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and arthroscopy for evaluating glenoid bone loss in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. MATERIALS AND

methodsA prospective observational study was performed on 32 patients over two years at a tertiary orthopedic center. The loss of sclerotic glenoid rim (LSGL) on AP radiograph and the percentage relative glenoid bone loss on the Bernageau radiograph were assessed. The percentage glenoid bone loss and anterior straight line (ASL) were calculated using a best fit en face circle method using CT and MRI. Percentage glenoid bone loss was also calculated during arthroscopy in multiples of 5%.

resultsIn our study, 90.6% (29) patients were males, while only 9.4% (3) were females. This can be attributed to the involvement of the males in outdoor activities and sports. Also, the maximum number of patients were found to belong to 21-30 years of age, with the mean age being 28.66 years. Of the 32 patients, loss of sclerotic glenoid line (LSGL) on AP radiographs correlated with glenoid bone loss on cross-sectional imaging in 27 patients. Three patients had equivocal LSGL and 2 patients with glenoid bone loss on CT did not demonstrate LSGL. The difference between the two modalities was not statistically significant (p value = 0.002). The glenoid bone loss on Bernageau view correlated with glenoid bone loss on cross sectional imaging in all but one patient. The bone loss as evaluated by radiograph Bernageau view was found to have strong correlation (correlation coefficient r = 0.948, p value < 0.0001).

conclusionAP and Bernageau radiographic views for anterior shoulder dislocations demonstrate good correlation with glenoid bone loss on cross-sectional imaging. They may also be used as an adjunct to predict overall bone loss on CT and at arthroscopy.
