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
Introduction: Chronic locked posterior dislocation (CLPD) of the shoulder presents a big challenge to the orthopedic surgeon due to the progressive damage to the glenohumeral articulation and increase in size of the reverse Hill-Sachs lesion (RHSL). Multiple treatment strategies have been postulated depending upon the size of the humeral head defect and the RHSL. Case Report: A 35-year-old Indian male patient presented to our Outpatient Department with complaints of pain and restriction in the range of motion over the right shoulder since suffering an injury over the shoulder 6 months back. Clinical examination revealed a bony restriction particularly in external rotation, flexion, and abduction of the right shoulder. The radiographs were suggestive of CLPD of the right shoulder with a large sized humeral head defect. An magnetic resonance imaging of the right shoulder was done to quantify the defect and reveal the anatomical status of the shoulder joint. After proper planning and workup, the patient was managed surgically with the modified McLaughlin procedure. Proper rehabilitation and regular follow-ups were done and the patient showed significant functional improvement of the right shoulder at 2-year follow-up. Conclusion: The treatment of CLPD varies according to the size of the humeral head defect and the functional demand of the patient. The modified McLaughlin procedure is an excellent option in mild to moderate-sized defects. The results of the procedure are also affected by the delay in treatment since the time of injury.
