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

The outcomes of arthroscopic repair of large-to-massive rotator cuff tears remain suboptimal, with high retear rates reported. To overcome factors such as poor cuff quality and degenerate tendons with poor blood supply, augmentation with acellular dermal matrix allograft has emerged as a useful adjuvant procedure to promote healing. However, it remains a technically demanding procedure with a steep learning curve. Various described techniques require the use of additional suture anchors, tissue staples, or special instruments. This Technical Note describes a modified technique that streamline the steps and uses the standard 4 suture anchors for double-row cuff repair for the augmentation procedure.
