Intra-articular Proximal Biceps Tenotomy With Extra-articular Transfer: A Technique to Repair Full-thickness Rotator Cuff Tears.
Article in Arthroscopy techniques, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT), as a tendinous structure adjacent to the rotator cuff, can be easily used to repair the rotator cuff. Currently, there are many different surgical procedures for the LHBT. Direct severance of the LHBT is simple but may result in pain and deformity, and fixation of the LHBT wastes the tendinous tissue of the segment of the articular cavity. Various specialists have hence proposed the technique of transfer of the LHBT and maximization of the effect of tendinous tissues of the articular cavity. Different procedures target different types of injuries. In this Technical Note, we describe an arthroscopic intra-articular proximal biceps tenotomy with extra-articular transfer procedure, which provides a "latch effect", strengthens the rotator cuff tendon, and may be able to reduce the retear rate.
