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

The aims of this study were to (i) quantify glenohumeral (GH) joint translations in healthy shoulders, (ii) assess subject-specific variability in GH translations, (iii) determine whether bony joint geometry (glenoid height, width, retroversion, inclination, GH asphericity and congruence), upright scapular posture, motion and handheld load affect translation magnitude and (iv) analyse the position of the humeral head centre (HHC) starting point relative to different glenoid centre definitions. We measured translations of the HHC relative to the glenoid axes in 19 healthy subjects during five arm motions. Mean 3D, superoinferior (SI), anteroposterior (AP), and mediolateral (ML) translation magnitudes were 14.7% of glenoid height, 9.5% of glenoid height, 15.4% of glenoid width, and 7.4% of glenoid height, respectively. Glenoid height affected 3D and SI translation magnitude inclination angle, glenoid asphericity and scapular tilt affected 3D and AP translation magnitudes and motion affected 3D, AP and SI translation magnitudes (
