[Degeneration and osteoporosis of the spine. Is there a modified procedure?].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Reduced bone quality due to osteoporosis poses a fundamental problem in spine surgery instrumentation. The consequences observed most often are insufficient implant anchoring and adjacent fractures. In cases of manifest osteoporosis, several modern anchoring possibilities are at our disposal that, to differing degrees, increase the stability of the instrumentation. Cement augmentation of a fractured vertebra by means of kyphoplasty or vertebroplasty verifiably leads to significantly better pain reduction than conservative treatment does, at least in the short-term postoperative course. A difference between these two techniques has not yet been substantiated. The rate of adjacent fractures occurring after cement augmentation is not higher than in conservatively treated patients.
