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
Background: Optimal placement of the glenosphere in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is a key component affecting postoperative range of motion (ROM) but remains a subject of ongoing research. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between three-dimensional (3D) glenosphere position and orientation relative to anatomic scapular landmarks and postoperative patient-reported outcomes and ROM following rTSA. Methods: A retrospective multicenter cohort study was conducted on primary rTSAs performed with a 135° humeral inlay component and a lateralized glenoid component between November 2016 and March 2022. Surgeries performed with a 3D plan and patient-specific transfer instrumentation with minimum 2-year clinical follow-up were included. Implant position was extracted from preoperative planning software, focusing on pin position (center of the glenosphere) and glenosphere diameter, version, and overhang relative to scapular anatomic landmarks. ROM and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) scores were assessed at 2-year follow-up, with linear regression models utilized to analyze the relationships between preoperative and intraoperative variables and postoperative outcomes while adjusting for confounding variables. Results: A total of 75 rTSAs met the study criteria. For every 1 millimeter increase in glenosphere diameter, there was a 0.5 spinal level decrease in internal rotation (IR) spine ( Conclusion: In patients with 3D planning and patient-specific instrumentation, smaller glenosphere diameter, increased baseplate retroversion, and avoidance of superior tilt improve IR after rTSA performed with a 135° humeral component and lateralized glenoid. A smaller glenosphere diameter and increased distance from the coracoid also improved ASES scores. This data suggests that with the use of a lateralized glenoid in rTSA, efforts should be made to increase the glenosphere distance from the coracoid, avoid a superior tilted positioning of the baseplate, and consider a smaller glenosphere when in between sizes.
