Chinese Knot Stitch Technique: A Simple Technique for Arthroscopic Biceps Tenodesis.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Lesions of the long head of the biceps tendon are commonly associated with shoulder pain and functional impairment. Surgical treatment through tenodesis has proven to be effective, but there is no consensus on the optimal technique. In this study, we present an all-arthroscopic biceps tenodesis technique inspired by the Chinese knot. This technique is relatively simple for experienced arthroscopic surgeons and has a short learning curve. It provides superior gripping strength to the biceps tendon through a double-locking suture loop, restoring its length-tension relationship.
