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

Arthroscopic acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) reconstruction is widely applied in ACJ dislocation. A 4.0-mm bone tunnel is the most used size in the clavicle; drilling a bone tunnel in the coracoid process is also commonly applied. However, large-diameter bone tunnels in the clavicle and coracoid process may cause many complications. Therefore, we present a pragmatic surgical technique of ACJ reconstruction with a 2.0-mm tunnel in the clavicle and looping the suture around the coracoid process. Due to the minimal trauma to the bone, the risk of fracture in the clavicle and the coracoid process can be significantly reduced; repeated drilling in the bone will not occur, and surgical difficulty and time will be greatly reduced accordingly.
