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

Gluteus medius (GM) tears are a well-established source of pain and disability, particularly in women older than 60 years of age. Irreparable GM tears represent a challenging situation. Transfer of the gluteus maximus (Gmax) and tensor fascia lata (TFL) has been described as a surgical alternative for irreparable full-thickness GM tears. Contemporary suture anchor fixation technology using transosseous-equivalent fixation in combination with dermal allograft augmentation is an option to increase the contact area and reinforce the Gmax and TFL transfer construct. The following Technical Note presents our preferred and current technique for Gmax and TFL transfer using contemporary suture anchor technology with a double-row transosseous-equivalent construct and dermal allograft augmentation in the setting of irreparable GM tears.
