Failed percutaneous kyphoplasty in treatment of stage 3 Kummell disease: A case report and literature review.
Review in Medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
rationaleAlbeit it is rare, the authors report a stage 3 Kummell disease case. It is diagnosed by dynamic thoracic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Because there is no established strategy on stage 3 Kummell disease, we performed percutaneous kyphoplasty at first, but unfortunately made a revision surgery to remove the polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement after the failure of percutaneous kyphoplasty. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 73-year-old lady with severe back pain due to osteoporosis vertebral fracture was admitted to our hospital on June 23, 2016. She underwent percutaneous kyphoplasty with the back pain improved shortly. Unfortunately, she went back to our hospital due to aggravated back pain and partial paralysis on July 25, 2016. DIAGNOSES: Kummell disease, lumbar stenosis, lacunar infarction. OUTCOMES: Specially, the compression of spinal cord was obvious in the hyperflexion position on dynamic MRI. Even though there was no improvement in muscle strength, the patient was satisfied with the back pain relief after percutaneous kyphoplasty. But, the same back pain reappeared after about 1 month. Then, we took out the PMMA cement and performed posterior vertebral column resection. At last, the back pain was relieved again but the muscle strength was improved not obviously after operation. At the same time, the kyphosis was corrected and the intravertebral stability was achieved. LESSONS: Dynamic MRI is helpful in Kummell disease with neurologic symptoms, even if there is no obvious compression in the neutral position. Furthermore, the intravertebral instability is probably the main reason of the neurologic symptoms in this case. Percutaneous kyphoplasty could not reconstruct the intravertebral stability. Stage 3 Kummell disease with obvious intravertebral instability should be treated by open surgery.
