Preoperative Resilience Does Not Predict Functional Outcomes After Rotator Cuff Repair: A Systematic Review.
Review in Arthroscopy, sports medicine, and rehabilitation, 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
Purpose: To determine whether preoperative or concurrent resilience is related to postoperative functional outcomes after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (aRCR). Methods: A literature search was conducted from PubMed, SportDiscus, and OVID Medline databases to identify studies evaluating the effect of preoperative resilience on postoperative outcomes in aRCR patients. Articles were included if they measured preoperative or concurrent resilience in aRCR patients as well as postoperative outcomes with a minimum 6-month follow-up. Concurrent resilience refers to resilience measured during the postoperative recovery period rather than prior to surgery (preoperative resilience). Patient resilience as measured via any resilience scale (e.g., Brief Resilience Scale, Life Orientation Test-Revised, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale) were collected, as were functional outcome scores such as the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score. Due to heterogeneity in study designs, a qualitative analysis was performed. Results: Seven studies, with a total of 614 patients, met the inclusion criteria. Six included studies that evaluated preoperative patient resilience and ASES scores found that preoperative patient resilience was not correlated with ASES scores 0.5 to 4 years following aRCR. Four studies assessed the relationship between concurrent resilience and ASES scores, with 2 studies showing significant correlations and 2 studies finding no significant correlation. Conclusions: Preoperative patient resilience does not correlate with postoperative ASES scores after aRCR. Concurrent patient resilience during recovery shows mixed associations with postoperative ASES scores, with some studies reporting significant correlations and others finding none. Level of Evidence: Level IV, systematic review of Level II to IV studies.
