Modified arthroscopic suture-button Latarjet procedure for recurrent anterior shoulder instability: 9-Year minimum follow-up.
Article in Knee surgery, sports traumatology, arthroscopy : official journal of the ESSKA, 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
purposesTo evaluate the efficacy of the modified arthroscopic suture-button (MASB) Latarjet procedure with at least 9 years of follow-up and remodelling of the coracoid grafts (CGs).
methodsPatients who underwent the MASB Latarjet procedure between February 2013 and February 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical outcomes, complications, union and remodelling of the CGs and glenohumeral degeneration were assessed postoperatively in a follow-up period of at least 9 years.
resultsA total of 106 patients were enroled with a mean follow-up of 110.3 ± 4.2 months. Significant improvements were observed in visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores during motion, the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), Rowe and Walch-Duplay scores (p < 0.001), with no significant range of motion (ROM) limitations at final follow-up. The complication rate was 8.5%, including two cases of instability, one requiring revision surgery. In the en-face sagittal view, 86.8% of grafts were excellently or well-positioned, and 89.6% were flush with the glenoid in the axial view. CG-glenoid union occurred in 99.1% of cases, restoring 99.5 ± 1.4% of the PFC, with no evident arthropathy at final follow-up.
conclusionThe MASB Latarjet provided durable shoulder stability and high patient satisfaction at 9-year follow-up, with low complications, minimal ROM loss and no evident glenohumeral degeneration. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, case series.
