A rare case of missed locked posterior shoulder fracture dislocation.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Posterior shoulder fracture-dislocation is a rare and often misdiagnosed injury leading to locked chronic dislocation and complicated management. Surgical management options vary based on chronicity, defect size, and patient-specific factors, with the modified McLaughlin procedure being a joint-preserving option for younger patients with large defects. We present a case of a 31-year-old male who had a missed locked posterior shoulder fracture-dislocation with a large reverse Hill-Sachs lesion, healed non-displaced proximal humerus fractures for >10 months following an electrical shock and fall. The patient underwent an open reduction and a modified McLaughlin procedure with lesser tuberosity transfer, resulting in significant symptom improvement and restored range of motion. Despite the often delayed diagnosis of posterior shoulder fracture dislocation, joint-preserving surgery such as modified McLaughlin procedure can restore function and improve quality of life in young patients with chronic injuries.
