Current Concepts in Pathogenesis and Conservative Management of Supraspinous Tendinopathies Using Shockwave Therapy-A Narrative Review of the Literature.
Review in Biomedicines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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 supraspinatus has been well studied in recent years, since the rotator cuff muscle is most commonly damaged, affecting the quality of life for patients with tendinopathy. Despite this tiny but crucial muscle being well-described, there is still much left to learn and discover, especially because chronic supraspinatus tendinopathy is a common pain syndrome that causes functional and labor disabilities in the population. The present narrative review, including systematic elements from biomechanical and clinical studies, highlights the role of conservative treatment using shockwave therapy.
