PRISMA flow diagram illustrating the study selection process for inclusion in the meta-analysis.
Figure 2 Forest plots comparing mean age and follow-up duration between reverse total shoulder arthroplasty and total shoulder arthroplasty groups.
A: Forest plot comparing mean age between patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and TSA; B: Forest plot comparing follow-up duration between reverse TSA and TSA groups. CI: Confidence interval; RTSA: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty; TSA: Total shoulder arthroplasty.
Figure 3 Forest plot showing odds ratios for receiving reverse total shoulder arthroplasty vs total shoulder arthroplasty by Walch glenoid type.
RTSA: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty; TSA: Total shoulder arthroplasty.
Figure 4 Forest plots comparing complications, reoperations, functional scores, and patient satisfaction between reverse total shoulder arthroplasty and total shoulder arthroplasty.
A: Forest plot comparing complication rates between reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) and total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA); B: Forest plot comparing reoperation rates between RTSA and TSA; C: Forest plot comparing Shoulder Pain and Disability Index scores postoperatively between RTSA and TSA; D: Forest plot comparing University of California Los Angeles scores between RTSA and TSA; E: Forest plot comparing Simple Shoulder Test scores between RTSA and TSA; F: Forest plot comparing patient satisfaction rates between RTSA and TSA; G: Forest plot comparing Visual Analog Scale pain scores between RTSA and TSA; H: Forest plot comparing American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores between RTSA and TSA; I: Forest plot comparing Constant Scores between RTSA and TSA. CI: Confidence interval; RTSA: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty; TSA: Total shoulder arthroplasty.
Figure 5 Forest plot comparing postoperative range of motion between reverse total shoulder arthroplasty and total shoulder arthroplasty.
A: External rotation; B: Internal rotation; C: Flexion; D: Abduction. CI: Confidence interval; RTSA: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty; TSA: Total shoulder arthroplasty.
