Arthroscopic Biologic Shoulder Tuberoplasty Irreparable Supraspinatus Tears: The "4-Corner" Technique.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The management of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears in young patients without degenerative joint changes or patients who are unsuitable for arthroplasty remains controversial. Biologic tuberoplasty can be a valuable option for patients without pseudoparalysis with preserved glenohumeral cartilage and a good passive range of motion. This is because the acellular dermal allograft covers the tuberosity, acting as an interpositional tissue and preventing bone-to-bone contact between the tuberosity and acromion. In addition biologic tuberoplasty can be faster, less technically demanding, and can lead to accelerated recovery, making this technique attractive. This technique aims to provide a practical solution with modifications to reduce surgical duration, enhance efficiency and reproducibility, and facilitate functional recovery and pain relief.
