1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aim: Large glenolabral tears (270°-360°) are infrequently reported injuries and can be challenging to manage. This study aims to describe the injury patterns, surgical technique, and midterm outcomes of arthroscopically repaired 270°-360° labral tears. Methods: Patient data was retrieved from the electronic data records from 2011 to 2021. The patients with arthroscopically confirmed and repaired 270°/360° tears (with or without superior labral anterior posterior lesions) with a minimum follow-up of 24 months were included, and Oxford shoulder instability score and visual analog score (VAS) pain score were recorded prospectively. Results: Twenty-four patients were included in the study with a mean follow-up of 52.6 ± 24.4 months. The mean pre-operative and final Oxford instability score was 24.8 ± 4.1 and 43.2 ± 1.5 ( Conclusion: Pan labral tears can be challenging to diagnose pre-operatively and may result in poor outcomes. Pain can serve as a clinical indicator of larger labral pathology in patients presenting with shoulder instability. A comprehensive understanding of the injury pattern, along with a systematic surgical approach, is essential for restoring adequate joint stability and achieving satisfactory results in the general patient population. Level of Evidence: IV.
