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

Currently, suture bridge (SB) is a popular way to treat large rotator cuff tears. However, the restricted number of sutures used for tendon fixation, the knotted medial row, and the excessive number of tendon holes created from suture hook piercing are the shortcomings of SB repair. Arthroscopic 4-anchor double-pulley suture-bridge (DPSB) repair is a pragmatic surgical technique and can overcome these shortcomings of SB repair. In the repair of large rotator cuff tears with the 4-anchor DPSB technique, 8 sets of DPSBs can obtain powerful fixation strength on the tendon, and sufficient tendon-to-bone coverage area, a knotless medial row, and only 4 tendon holes created from suture hook piercing can reduce the type 2 retear rate.
