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

Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is rare in the shoulder, with few descriptions in the literature. We present the case of a 58-year-old female patient with no history of trauma. The patient reported pain for 2 months with no limb irradiation and presented lifting strength loss and progressive limitation of active and passive mobility. She underwent unsupervised physical therapy and there was no improvement in symptoms. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the shoulder showed an oval structure of approximately 2 cm in diameter in the anteroinferior region of the glenohumeral joint with internal hypointense signal foci. We performed the arthroscopic treatment, with marginal resection of the lesion and tenotomy of the long bicipital head. The anatomopathological report confirmed the diagnosis of PVNS. Four years and five months after the surgery, the patient is pain-free, with full recovery of the left shoulder function. A follow-up MRI showed no recurrence, demonstrating the effectiveness of the arthroscopic treatment in this case.
