Anatomical feasibility study of unilateral percutaneous kyphoplasty for lumbar through the conventional transpedicular approach: An observational study using 3D CT analysis.
Observational study in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The aim of the study was to discuss the significance of sex, level, age, and side in relation to the anatomical distinctions of unilateral percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for lumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) through the conventional transpedicle approach (CTPA).We have retrospectively collected lumbar spines (L1-L5) of 200 patients and simulated PKP on the 3D CT scans through unilateral CTPA. We have measured the distance between the entry point and the midline of the vertebral body (DEM), the puncture inclination angle (PIA), safe range of the inner inclination angles (SRA), and the success rate (SR) of puncture.Significant differences (P < .05) between the male and female for L1 to L5, left and right side for L1 to L3 in the mean DEM were shown. The DEM from L1 to L5 was significantly increased (P < .05) from (20.6 ± 2.0) mm to (29.8 ± 2.9) mm. For L1 to L5, the right maximum PIA was significantly larger than the left. The maximum PIA and SRA in the male was significantly larger than that in the female. The SRA from L1 to L5 was significantly increased (P < .05) from (19.5 ± 5.9)° to (48.9 ± 8.1)°. The SR in male was significantly higher than that in female for L1 to L4. There were no significant differences in the SR between different age groups except for L4. The SR from L1 to L5 was significantly increased (P < .05) from 26.3% to 99.0%.DEM was 20.6 to 29.8 mm according to different levels. The value of DEM, PIA, SRA, and SR was significantly increased from L1 to L5. No significant differences in the SR between right and left for L1 to L5, different age groups except for L4 were observed.
