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

Changes in spino-pelvic alignment can lead to changes in acetabular coverage and predispose those with spinal pathologies to hip pathologies. The purpose of this study was to define the incidence of acetabular overcoverage in pediatric spine patients. Retrospective review of charts and EOS radiographs was conducted for patients ≤21 years old with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) or Scheuermann's Kyphosis (SK) who were treated with posterior spinal fusion (PSF) between 12/01/2015-7/26/2016. Radiographs were measured for lateral center edge angles (LCEA), anterior center edge angle (ACEA), and lumbar lordosis pre- and postoperatively. 32 patients met inclusion criteria. Preoperatively, mean LCEA was 44.1 degrees (range: 32-55, SD: 5.1) on the right and 42.8 degrees (range: 33-52, SD: 4.4) on the left. Mean preoperative ACEA was 56.0 degrees (range: 35-90, SD: 10.4). Mean preoperative lordosis was 56.0 degrees (range: -22-105, SD: 19.1) Preoperative LCEA was not associated with lordosis (right:
