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

rationaleThe purpose of this study is to introduce the technique of screw view model of navigation (SVMN) for upper cervical pedicle screw (UCPS) insertion. With the assistance of SVMN technology, the difficulty of screw placement manipulation can be diminished and the accuracy of placement can be improved. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 49-year-old man presented with numbness of extremities and limited activity for 2 years. DIAGNOSES: He was diagnosed with old fracture of C1 vertebra and atlantoaxial subluxation.

interventionsWe used SVMN to assist UCPS insertion and lateral mass screw insertion in this patient. OUTCOMES: A total of 2 pedicle screws and 2 lateral mass screws were inserted, all screws were defined as excellent position according to postoperative computer tomography (CT). The neurological function was intact postoperatively. The operation time was 293 minutes, the total fluoroscopic time was 4.1 minutes and the bleeding volume was 302 ml. There were no complications during the 48 months follow-up period.

conclusionsThe application of SVMN in UCPS insertion could achieve satisfactory effect of internal fixation for upper cervical spine and avoid neurovascular damage. The utilization of SVMN for UCPS insertion is a safe and efficacious method. Besides, it also increased the patients' hospital cost, and the surgeon must be quite familiar with the functional state of computer navigation.
