Three-dimensional reconstructions of Lenke 1A curves.
Article in Scoliosis and spinal disorders, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundScoliosis is a 3D deformity that can be reconstructed through 2D antero-posterior and lateral radiographs, which provide an upper view of the deformed spine as well as regional planes matching all vertebrae of elective plane for each curve. The objective of this study is to explore whether all idiopathic scoliosis classified Lenke 1A have the same 3D representation made with regional planes.
methodsAll patients treated for idiopathic thoracic scoliosis during the growth period and classified Lenke 1A were included in this study conducted in the pediatric spinal orthopedic department of Centre des Massues. A photogrammetric technique was used to obtain a 3D reconstruction, from regional planes identified on radiographs made with the EOS system. Three regional planes are usually identified in asymptomatic spines: lumbar, dorsal, and cervical-none of them presenting rotation. In the studied group, the number of planes, the rotation, and the limit vertebrae of each plane were looked for.
resultsSixty-three patients were included (47 girls and 16 boys, mean age 11.3 years). The Cobb angle was meanly 36.5°. The scoliosis was reconstructed with three regional planes (57%) or four ones (43%, with the thoracic plane divided into two planes). Maximal rotation was found in the thoracic plane, especially when scoliosis was represented with four regional planes. The transition between planes 2 and 3 was mainly located between the fourth and sixth dorsal vertebrae.
conclusionThe use of an arbitrary regional plane representation of a 3D shape leads to conclude that there are two types of Lenke 1A scoliosis, which should be taken into account for designing the brace.
