Endoscopic removal of nucleus pulposus of intervertebral disc on lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion and the influence on inflammatory factors and immune function.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Endoscopic removal of nucleus pulposus (NP) of intervertebral disc (IVD) on lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion (LIDP) and its influence on inflammatory factors and immune function were explored. A total of 145 patients with LIDP admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from June 2017 to December 2018 were selected and electively treated, in which 87 patients were treated with fenestration discectomy (fenestration group) and 58 patients were treated with endoscopic removal of NP of IVD (minimally invasive group). Effects on patients in the two groups within 6 months after surgery were evaluated by modified MacNab score; differences in surgical related indexes and incidence rates of complications between the two groups were compared; the Oswestry dysfunction score and VAS pain score before treatment, and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment, and changes of cellular levels of TNF-α, IL-4, IL-6, CD3
