Clinical efficacy of arthroscopic cyst decompression combined with labral repair for spinoglenoid cysts.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2026. 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
objectiveTo evaluate the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic cyst decompression combined with labral repair in patients with spinoglenoid cysts, with emphasis on symptom relief and functional recovery.
methodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 6 patients who underwent arthroscopic decompression and labral repair for spinoglenoid cysts between August 2022 and February 2024. Preoperative and postoperative pain (VAS score), shoulder function (Constant-Murley score), and imaging findings were compared.
resultsAt a mean follow-up of 24 months(range, 12-36 months), the VAS score improved significantly from 8.17 ± 1.17 preoperatively to 1.5 ± 1.05 postoperatively (P < 0.05). The Constant-Murley score also showed significant improvement, increasing from 62.50 ± 5.36 to 96.00 ± 2.83 (P < 0.05). MRI confirmed complete cyst resolution in 5 patients and significant reduction in 1 patient, with no recurrence observed.
conclusionThis preliminary study suggests that arthroscopic decompression combined with labral repair may be a viable option for treating spinoglenoid cysts. In our small cohort, the procedure was well-tolerated and was associated with improved shoulder function in the early postoperative period. These initial findings warrant further validation in larger, controlled studies.
