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

This case report describes the clinical progress of a 22-year-old male patient diagnosed with a consolidating Hill-Sachs lesion, treated with 18 sessions of Tissue Optimization Reparative (TO-Rpr) protocol, specific to Radio Electric Asymmetric Conveyor (REAC) technology. At baseline, the patient reported persistent pain with a numeric rating scale (NRS) score of 7 out of 10 and significant functional limitations of the shoulder (flexion 90°, abduction 70°, external rotation 20°), accompanied by bone marrow edema, tendinous alterations, and significant inflammation. The therapeutic protocol aimed to modulate tissue bioelectric activity to promote reparative processes and reduce inflammation. Follow-up MRI, performed four months after treatment, revealed complete resolution of bone marrow edema, normalization of tendinous structures, and reduced cortical irregularities. Clinically, flexion improved to 160°, abduction to 150°, and external rotation to 70°, with muscle strength restored to 5/5 and pain reduced to 0/10 on the NRS. This case highlights the role of REAC TO-Rpr treatment in managing complex joint lesions, showcasing its potential to significantly improve clinical and radiological parameters within a short timeframe.
