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

objectiveThe aim of the study was to evaluate the loss of truncal rotation over 54 hours after removing Chêneau brace.

methodsThe studied groups consisted of 39 girls aged 10-18 years old, diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and treated with Chêneau brace (CAST) and 20 AIS girls aged 10-18 years old, not treated with bracing. Posterior-anterior radiographs were obtained from the clinical assessment of all subjects and were subsequently used to determine Cobb angles. The measurements of the angle of trunk rotation (ATR) were taken with the Scoliometer® and back-contour device during Adams forward bending test by the two evaluators. The changes in ATRs during 54 hours of observation were performed after the brace had been taken off (0, 2, 24, 30, 48 and 54 hours after debracing). This was described using V

resultsThe highest changes were observed in the thoracic as well as in lumbar spine in patients with Cobb angle ≥30°, axial rotation of the apical vertebrae within 5-15°, Risser sign 0-2. The biggest change in the trunk rotation after Chêneau brace had been taken off was noted within the first two hours of observation.

conclusionThe patients should be advised to take the brace off for a minimum of two hours before the scheduled x-ray, to allow full relaxation of the trunk in order to obtain reliable radiological images of the deformation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III Therapeutic study.
