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

Background: The purpose of this study was to describe outcomes of patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) using a patient-specific, custom glenoid component to address severe glenoid deficiency. Methods: Retrospective chart review identified patients at a single institution undergoing rTSA using the glenoid vault reconstruction system (VRS) between 2017 and 2022. Radiographic evaluation, range of motion and patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures, complications, and re-operations were assessed. Results: Fourteen shoulders were included. There was 100% implant survivorship of the glenoid baseplate at mean follow-up of 26.6 months. Mean range of motion improved in forward elevation (62-106 degrees), abduction (41-100 degrees), and external rotation (11-36 degrees). In 7 of 13 patients available for PRO collection, the mean final Visual Analog Pain Scale (VAS) score was 1.29, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score was 72.14, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES) score was 77.14, and Penn Shoulder score was 72.26. Conclusions: Use of this custom glenoid resulted in encouraging clinical and radiographic outcomes, with no failures in implant survivorship seen at early follow-up. Larger prospective studies with longer-term follow-up should be undertaken in order to better determine the efficacy and longevity of this implant. Study Design: Retrospective case series; Level of evidence, 4.
