Bioaugmentation demonstrates similar outcomes and failure rates for arthroscopic revision rotator cuff repair compared to revision without bioaugmentation.

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: Arthroscopic revision rotator cuff repairs (RCRs) exhibit lower healing rates and inferior outcomes compared to primary repairs. There is limited evidence regarding the use of bioaugmentation in the setting of revision RCRs. Autologous conditioned plasma (ACP) is a promising adjunct that has been shown to improve healing rates and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in the primary setting. In addition, bioinductive patches such as collagen bovine patches have become a popular adjunct for stimulating healing in the primary setting. The aim of this study is to assess the outcomes after use of ACP and collagen bovine patch augmentation for revision arthroscopic RCR. We hypothesized improved PROs and higher healing rates would be observed with bioaugmentation for revision repair compared to without. Methods: This was an institutional review board-approved, retrospective case-control study from 2 fellowship-trained surgeons that included all consecutive patients undergoing arthroscopic revision RCR from 2010 to 2021. Reconstruction such as superior capsular reconstruction, partial revision repair, and less than 1-year follow-up were excluded. The bioaugmentation cohort received ACP and/or collagen bovine patch at the time of revision repair. PROs were collected from all patients including American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Assessment Form (ASES), visual analog scale for pain (VAS), Brophy score, and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) mental and physical scores. Failure of revision RCR was defined as an ASES postoperative total score less than 60 or a symptomatic retear confirmed on magnetic resonance imaging. Student's Results: Thirty-eight patients met inclusion criteria with average follow-up of 3.5 ± 1.7 years. There was no significant difference in follow-up between patients with and without bioaugmentation. Of the 38 patients, 14 patients met failure criteria. There was no significant difference in the rate of failure between the bioaugmentation cohort (6/19, 31.6%) vs. patients who did not receive bioaugmentation (8/19, 42.1%) ( Conclusion: Bioaugmentation with a bioinductive collagen patch or ACP demonstrated similar failure and PROs compared to without bioaugmentation in the setting of revision RCR.
