Novel Custom 3D-Printed Glenoid in Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Case Report of Bilateral Total Shoulder Arthroplasties.

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
Glenoid bone loss in the setting of complex reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) poses a challenge to surgeons. The advent of custom-made glenoid implants has allowed for the restoration of glenoid alignment and version in cases of significant defects. We present a novel case of a patient who underwent bilateral rTSAs, one of which was performed with a 3D-printed custom glenoid implant. Functional results at one year were comparable between the two shoulders, despite the significant preoperative glenoid defect in the shoulder that required a custom component. This case report and other early results with custom glenoid augments demonstrate promising clinical and radiological outcomes.
