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 long head of the biceps is a common pain generator in the shoulder that is often managed surgically with tenotomy or tenodesis. Although the clinical outcomes after the 2 techniques are comparable, tenodesis is generally performed in relatively young and active patients to avoid tenotomy-related complications, such as cosmetic deformity, early fatigue, and cramping. This Technical Note describes a proximal biceps tenodesis coanchored with the anchor of the lateral row in rotator cuff repair. This tenodesis fixation is simple and cost-effective, with no need for additional anchors.
