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

Greater tuberosity (GT) fractures with rotator cuff injuries are challenging due to risks of nonunion and functional loss. We report a case treated with a distal radius locking plate combined with suture anchors. A female patient presented with shoulder pain and immobility 4 weeks after trauma, diagnosed with humeral head dislocation and rotator cuff tear. She underwent minimally invasive fixation using this combined technique, which provides stable fracture reduction while repairing the rotator cuff. At the 18-month follow-up, shoulder function was fully restored with no complications. This combined technique achieved favorable outcomes, suggesting that it may represent a safe and effective option for selected patients with similar complex injuries.
