Short-term effects of a dynamic neutralization system (Dynesys) for multi-segmental lumbar disc herniation.
Article in European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo determine the safety and short-term curative effects of internal fixation using a dynamic neutralization system (Dynesys) for multi-segmental lumbar disc herniation (ms-LDH) with the control group treated by posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF).
methodsForty-five patients with ms-LDH were selected as study group treated with Dynesys and 40 patients as control group with PLIF. The surgical efficacy was evaluated by comparing the visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores and the ROMs of the adjacent segment before and after surgery. The postoperative complications related to the implants were identified.
resultsAll patients were followed up for an average duration of over 30 months. Dynesys stabilization resulted in significantly higher preservation of motion at the index level (p < 0.001), and significantly less (p < 0.05) hypermobility at the adjacent segments. VAS for back and leg pain and ODI improved significantly (p < 0.05) with both the methods, but there was no significant difference between the groups.
conclusionsThe non-fusion fixation system Dynesys is safe and effective regarding short-term curative effects for the treatment of ms-LDH.
