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

Glenohumeral joint injections serve diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in a wide spectrum of shoulder disorders. Various techniques have been described, depending on the injection site, needle orientation and utilisation of image or landmark-based guidance. The accuracy of needle placement and clinical effectiveness vary by the injection route and the method of guidance and largely depend on operator's expertise, clinical indication and patient's profile. Herein, we describe an alternative ultrasound-guided glenohumeral joint injection technique through a modified posterior approach for routine use in clinical practice.
