Symptomatic aneurysmal bone cysts of the spine: clinical features, surgical outcomes, and prognostic factors.

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
purposeThe aim of the study was to report the long-term outcomes and analyze the potential prognostic factors that may contribute to symptomatic patients with aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) of the spine undergoing surgical treatments.
methodsA retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with ABCs of the spine was performed. The clinical features were reviewed, and the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors with p values ≤ 0.05 were subjected to multivariate analysis by Cox proportional hazards model to identify the independent prognostic contributors. p values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
resultsA total of 42 patients with ABCs of the spine were included in the study. All patients received surgical treatments. The mean follow-up period was 41.3 months (median 39.5, range 24-64). Local recurrence was detected in eight patients after surgery in our center, whereas death occurred in three patients. The estimated 5-year DFS and OS rate was 54.1% and 76.8%, respectively. The statistical analyses indicated that both en bloc resection and primary/secondary tumor status were independent prognostic factors for DFS.
conclusionsSecondary ABC status may be associated with worse prognosis, and en bloc resection remains the treatment of choice for ABCs with neurologic deficits or spinal instability of the spine, which is correlated with better prognosis for local tumor control.
