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

Osteoporosis with subsequent vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) is an increasingly common problem in western countries. This systematic review tries to update the evidence base for Balloon Kyphoplasty (BKP) and Vertebroplasty (PV) in the management of VCFs. We have analyzed 16 reviews and 97 articles. The majority of studies compares conventional medical management of VCFs to patients undergoing BKP or VP. We discuss selection criteria, techniques, potential complications, advantages and disadvantages, and results of each technique, recognizing that prospective, randomized controlled studies are necessary to objectively compare these techniques.
