A Comparison of Return to Sport After Bankart Repair Versus Latarjet for Shoulder Instability: A Systematic Review.
Review in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Glenohumeral instability can be addressed surgically with repair of the capsulolabral complex, the "Bankart" repair, or bone augmentation with coracoid autograft, the "Latarjet" procedure. Superior return-to-sport (RTS) rates with either Bankart repair or Latarjet have yet to be delineated, and it remains unclear which surgical procedure is optimal. Purpose: To review the current literature and report on RTS data for patients who received Bankart repair or Latarjet to address glenohumeral instability. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) guidelines by an individual researcher screening through 3 databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase) for articles including RTS rates after Bankart repair and Latarjet. Eight studies that met inclusion and exclusion criteria were included for review. Results: Meta-analysis included 874 athletes who underwent shoulder stabilization: 479 Bankart repair and 395 Latarjet. An overall 94.4% of athletes returned to sport with no statistically significant difference between the surgical groups. Of 665 athletes, 68.1% returned to sport at the same level or higher with no statistically significant difference between the groups. RTS time among the 665 athletes averaged 6 months with no statistically significant difference between the groups. A total of 56 athletes did not RTS: 33 (7.4%) Bankart repair and 23 (6.3%) Latarjet. There was a statistically significant difference ( Conclusion: Bankart repair and Latarjet have a high RTS rate with no significant difference in rate, rate of return to previous level of play, or time. One of 4 athletes will not return to the level played before surgery, independent of stabilization technique. Bankart repair is 4 times more likely to result in recurrent instability as compared with Latarjet.
