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

introductionWe herein describe a case of delayed union of a lumbar spine fracture in a 70-year-old patient with diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). CLINICAL COURSE AND

resultBecause he decided not to undergo surgical treatment, we provided conservative treatment with teriparatide (TPTD). Union was obtained in 2 months, and no adverse events were observed during treatment. Six months after starting the TPTD, further bone formation was observed and the lumbar instability had resolved.

conclusionThis is the first report of successful use of TPTD to treat delayed union of a spine fracture in a patient with DISH without surgical intervention.
