Clinical outcomes following concomitant arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and anterior shoulder stabilization: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in JSES reviews, reports, and techniques, 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
Background: To evaluate clinical outcomes, including patient-reported function, recurrent instability, and complication rates, following concomitant arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and anterior shoulder stabilization. Methods: A systematic review was performed in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses 2020 guidelines. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched from inception through April 2026. Studies evaluating concomitant arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and anterior stabilization with reported post-operative outcomes were included. Pooled proportions for recurrent instability, structural rotator cuff retear, and reoperation were calculated using random-effects meta-analysis with logit transformation and Knapp-Hartung adjustment. Results: Six studies (160 patients) met inclusion criteria (Level III-IV). The pooled recurrence rate was 3.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0%-9.9%; I Conclusion: Concomitant arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and anterior shoulder stabilization is associated with low rates of recurrent instability but a meaningful risk of structural rotator cuff failure. Outcomes appear to be influenced by instability chronicity, with acute presentations demonstrating more favorable results. Prospective studies stratified by instability chronicity and with standardized imaging surveillance are needed.
