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

The clinical efficacy of percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after bilateral resection of ovarian cancer was investigated. Eighty-six patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after bilateral resection of ovarian cancer admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Hefei from September, 2015 to August, 2016 were selected and randomly divided into control group (n=43) and observation group (n=43). The control group was treated with PVP, while the observation group received PKP. The operation time, fluoroscopy times, bone cement volume and leakage rate of patients in the two groups were recorded; the postoperative pain of patients was compared using Short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire; the changes in height of injured vertebra and Cobb angle of patients in two groups were compared; the efficacy of patients in the two groups was compared in accordance with Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) and Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) low back pain scoring; and the quality of life was compared. The fluoroscopy times and bone cement leakage were significantly less in observation group than those in control group (P<0.05). After operation, the scores of ODI, MPQ and JOA in the two groups were significantly improved (P<0.05). The postoperative height of injured vertebra and the Cobb angle of patients in two groups were significantly different than those before the operation (P<0.05). The quality of life of patients in the observation group was higher than that in the control group one year after operation (P<0.05). In conclusion, PKP and PVP are effective in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after bilateral resection of ovarian cancer; however, PKP is more conducive to lumbar stability and maintenance of intervertebral height thus greatly correcting the kyphosis, which is beneficial to improving the quality of life of patients.
