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

Greater trochanteric pain syndrome is a prevalent cause of lateral-sided hip pain. In this Technical Note, we propose an endoscopic double-pulley technique that demonstrates gluteus medius and minimus repair via a double-row tape-bridge configuration. Our approach facilitates abductor repair in a consistent and reproducible manner using 3 to 4 peritrochanteric portals while avoiding the difficulties of antegrade or retrograde suture passage. This surgical technique is useful for high-grade partial tears, minimally retracted full-thickness tears, or refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome with gluteal tendinopathy.
