The Biological Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Rotator Cuff Tears: A Prospective Randomized In Vivo Study.
Trial report in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 positive effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on tendon metabolism has been extensively investigated and proven in vitro. Additionally, in vivo animal studies have correlated the application of PRP with the enhancement of tenocyte anabolic activity in the setting of tendon degeneration. However, less is known about its in vivo effect on human tendon biology. The purpose of the current prospective randomized comparative study was to evaluate the effect of PRP on torn human supraspinatus tendon. Twenty consecutive eligible patients with painful and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-confirmed degenerative supraspinatus tendon tears were randomized in a one-to-one ratio into two groups. The patients in the experimental group (
