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

backgroundEvidence-based procedures and pathways to reduce peri- and postoperative complications, while simultaneously achieving a high satisfaction rate of patients and lower costs are important goals in the treatment of orthopedic patients. PURPOSE: This article describes the key factors to improve treatment of patients with indications for stabilization of one or two segments in the field of degenerative lumbar spine pathologies. A fast-track concept was developed to optimize the pathway of treatment, while increasing patient satisfaction and shortening the hospital stay. In the present patient cohort, significantly greater patient satisfaction and significantly shorter hospital stays were achieved.

resultsThe hospital stay was reduced from 10.9 to 6.2 days after introduction of a multimodal patient school that was held 10 days prior to admission, with mobilization on the day of surgery with a strictly followed treatment plan supervised by therapists and taking into account the patient's own assessment, as well an early plan for discharge based on fixed established criteria. This concept is a very successful tool to achieve high quality standard of treatment paired with a reduction of hospital stay.
