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

Background: Chronic anterior shoulder dislocation is rare and poses significant therapeutic challenges due to associated structural injuries. This case report details the management of a chronic dislocation with complex pathologies. Case presentation: A 28-year-old female patient presented with persistent left shoulder deformity and restricted motion 1 year after an anterior dislocation. Imaging revealed a locked anterior dislocation, Bankart lesion, Hill-Sachs lesion, pseudoglenoid formation, and rotator cuff atrophy. Preoperative functional scores were poor. Intervention: Arthroscopic posterior capsular release and glenoid osteoplasty were performed, followed by open Latarjet procedure with coracoid transfer and screw fixation. Temporary Kirschner wire stabilization was maintained for 2 weeks. Outcomes: At 1-year follow-up, shoulder mobility significantly improved and functional scores markedly increased with no recurrence. The patient reported high satisfaction. Conclusion: The Latarjet procedure combined with arthroscopic release effectively restored stability and function in chronic anterior shoulder dislocation caused by epileptic seizure. Early postoperative rehabilitation is critical for optimal recovery.
