Correlation analysis of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures and spinal sagittal imbalance.
Article in Der Orthopade, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
purposeTo evaluate the correlation between osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures and spinal sagittal imbalance, in order to provide a reference for clinical treatment.
methodsFrom September 2013 to March 2015, 60 elderly patients with old osteoporotic vertebral compression factures (observation group) and 60 healthy elderly people (control group) were studied. Whole-spine anteroposterior and lateral view X‑ray photographs were taken from all participants, the number and location of fractured vertebrae were recorded, and sagittal parameters in both groups were compared. The observation group was divided into three subgroups according to the number of fractured vertebrae. The C7/sacrofemoral distance (SFD) ratio in the three subgroups was compared, and the correlation between the number of fractured vertebrae and the C7/SFD ratio was analyzed.
resultsThe thoracic kyphotic angle in patients in the observation group was higher than in the control group (P < 0.05), the lumbar lordotic angle in patients in the observation group was lower than in the control group (P < 0.05), the absolute value of the T1 spinopelvic inclination angle in patients in the observation group was lower than in the control group (P < 0.05), and the C7/SFD ratio of patients in the observation group was higher than in the control group (P < 0.05). C7/SFD ratios of the subgroups differed from each other, and the number of fractured vertebrae and C7/SFD ratio were positively correlated.
conclusionOsteoporotic vertebral compression fractures can change local spinal sagittal alignment, multiple vertebral compression fractures can cause spinal sagittal imbalance, and the number of fractured vertebrae and the degree of forward movement of the spine were positively correlated.
