Surgical Advances in the Treatment of Acromioclavicular Joint Injury: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In this article, we aim to review the diagnosis, classification, and treatment of acromioclavicular joint injury by mainly describing the progress of surgical treatment for acromioclavicular joint injury, providing a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Acromioclavicular joint injury is a common sports injury, which is more common in male than in female patients. The mechanism of the injury is mainly caused by direct or indirect violence, which can be clearly diagnosed by radiography. According to the time after injury, it can be divided into acute injury and chronic injury. The Rockwood classification is the most commonly used classification in research. For Rockwood types V to VI, we treat with surgery, while the treatment options for type III are controversial and no consensus has been reached. Surgical treatment can be divided into open surgery and shoulder arthroscopy. The methods of open surgery can be divided into 3 categories: direct acromioclavicular joint fixation, coracoclavicular space suspension device fixation, and coracoclavicular ligament reconstruction. The shoulder arthroscopy method involves reconstruction of the coracoclavicular ligament under arthroscopy, combined with suture-button suspension fixation. For patients with Rockwood classification III and IV-VI, who have significant movement needs, surgery is the preferred treatment for acute acromioclavicular dislocation within 3 weeks. For patients with a chronic acromioclavicular dislocation or who do not respond to nonsurgical treatment, it is recommended to use wire suspension fixation combined with ligament to repair the damage. This article aims to review advances in the management of acromioclavicular joint injury.
