Quasi-automatic 3D reconstruction of the full spine from low-dose biplanar X-rays based on statistical inferences and image analysis.
Article in European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
purposeTo design a quasi-automated three-dimensional reconstruction method of the spine from biplanar X-rays as the daily used method in clinical routine is based on manual adjustments of a trained operator and the reconstruction time is more than 10 min per patient.
methodsThe proposed method of 3D reconstruction of the spine (C3-L5) relies first on a new manual input strategy designed to fit clinicians' skills. Then, a parametric model of the spine is computed using statistical inferences, image analysis techniques and fast manual rigid registration.
resultsAn agreement study with the clinically used method on a cohort of 57 adolescent scoliotic subjects has shown that both methods have similar performance on vertebral body position and axial rotation (null bias in both cases and standard deviation of signed differences of 1 mm and 3.5° around, respectively). In average, the solution could be computed in less than 5 min of operator time, even for severe scoliosis.
conclusionThe proposed method allows fast and accurate 3D reconstruction of the spine for wide clinical applications and represents a significant step towards full automatization of 3D reconstruction of the spine. Moreover, it is to the best of our knowledge the first method including also the cervical spine. These slides can be retrieved under electronic supplementary material.
