Reverse total shoulder replacement after traumatic acute ischemia of the upper limb due to proximal humerus fracture.
Article in Trauma case reports, 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
Proximal humerus fractures represent approximately 5% of all fractures, predominantly affecting elderly patients with osteoporotic bone. While many cases are minimally displaced and treated conservatively, complex fracture patterns-particularly those involving multiple fragments or head-splitting components-pose significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. One of the rare but serious complications of these injuries is vascular involvement, most notably affecting the axillary artery due to its anatomical proximity. Although uncommon, acute ischemia of the upper limb secondary to such trauma requires prompt diagnosis and urgent multidisciplinary management to avoid irreversible tissue damage or limb loss. We report the case of a 58-year-old man who presented with a complex four-part proximal humerus fracture with a head-split configuration following a fall from standing height. The trauma was complicated by acute limb ischemia caused by blunt injury to the axillary artery.
