Arthroscopic Trapeziectomy With 4-mm Arthroscope and Without Traction Tower.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Osteoarthritis of the first carpometacarpal joint causes pain and hand function impairment. Pain reduction and preservation or improvement in the thumb motion are the main treatment aims. Surgery is indicated in cases recalcitrant to conservative treatment. Trapeziectomy is the most popular surgical treatment choice. Arthroscopic trapeziectomy is gaining popularity because of its advantage of minimally invasive surgery. Classically, the arthroscopic procedure is performed under continuous traction with a traction tower. Recently, the technique of arthroscopic trapeziectomy without a traction tower has been reported. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of refining this technique by performing arthroscopic trapeziectomy with a 4-mm arthroscope and without a traction tower. This has the advantage of more effective bone resection.
