Partial-Thickness Bursal-Site Rotator Cuff Repair With Autologous Bursa Augmentation.
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
Rotator cuff tears are persistent problems that motivate clinicians to explore innovative solutions to enhance patient healing outcomes. Bursal cells have proliferative, differentiating, and migrating properties, making them a feasible solution to this problem. This article aims to show a possible solution for symptomatic, refractory bursal-sided rotator cuff tears using a bio-inductive scaffold (BIS) with bursa augmentation. This procedure is eligible for patients with bursal-sided rotator cuff tears that have been refractory to conservative treatment. The surgical technique consists of an augmentation of a BIS filled with minced bursal tissue, a source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The scaffold serves as a barrier to hold the bursal cells on top of the lesion, promoting cell-to-cell contact between tenocytes and MSC-rich bursal cells, thereby enhancing their full potential. This surgical technique is a straightforward, reproducible, and effective approach to enhancing rotator cuff repair. By using autologous bursal MSCs and a BIS, this technique promotes healing, potentially reducing retear rates and accelerating recovery. The use of the BIS further supports the repair, ensuring optimal tissue healing in the tendon-bone junction.
