Successful Transarterial Embolisation for Recurrent Subacromial-subdeltoid Bursitis: Case Report.
Article in Interventional radiology (Higashimatsuyama-shi (Japan), 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
An 83-year-old man presented with chronic right shoulder pain and stiffness from recurrent subacromial-subdeltoid bursitis associated with rotator cuff tears, despite initial conservative measures. He refused surgery but agreed to transarterial embolization. The first transarterial embolization was performed with 1:1 lipiodol:iohexol emulsion, but provided no significant symptom relief. A repeat transarterial embolization demonstrated recanalization in several branches and new neovascularity. These were successfully embolized with 100 μm embozene particles. Post-procedure, his pain score on the numerical rating scale improved from 6 to 2 at rest and 7 to 3 during motion, no longer requiring regular analgesics. Follow-up ultrasound showed sustained resolution of bursal effusion up to 18 months. This case suggests the efficacy of transarterial embolization in treating recurrent subacromial-subdeltoid bursitis.
