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

Acromioclavicular (AC) joint instability is a common issue. The stability of this joint depends on the combined support of the coracoclavicular ligaments and the AC ligament and capsular structures. Several surgical methods for treating horizontal instability have been reported. The arthroscopic Weaver-Dunn procedure, involving the transfer of the acromial end of the acromial-coracoid ligament to the clavicle, is a well-known option for coracoacromial reconstruction, particularly for addressing vertical instability. This technique has demonstrated positive functional and clinical outcomes. We modified the Weaver-Dunn procedure to treat horizontal instability of the AC joint. Using this technique, we transferred the coracoid end of the coracoacromial ligament to the clavicle.
