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

Shoulder function is important in patients who underwent reverse shoulder prosthesis surgery for cuff tear arthropathy in the postoperative period to implement their daily routines. Therefore, we aimed to predict the repairability of the subscapularis tendon in reverse shoulder arthroplasty by looking at the radiological findings. A total of 107 shoulders of 101 patients were examined retrospectively. Preoperative and postoperative shoulder AP radiographs of the patients were evaluated according to acromiohumeral distance, lateral humeral offset, acromiohumeral distance difference, lateral humeral offset difference, Hamada classification, and rotator cuff Goutallier staging. The subscapularis tendon could not be repaired in 31 (28.97%) of 107 shoulders and could not be repaired in 13 of 17 patients who used an onlay prosthesis. There was no significant correlation between preoperative Hamada staging, preoperative lateral humeral offset and lateral humeral offset difference, and subscapularis repair (
