Revision surgery for tumors of the thoracic and lumbar spine: causes, prevention, and treatment strategy.
Review 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, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionRevision surgery in spine tumor surgery can offer peculiar challenges given the severity of the majority of these lesions and the complexity of surgical procedures that are required. MATERIALS AND METHODS AND
resultsBased on literature review and on personal experience, surgical site infection, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, tumor recurrence and hardware failures are some of the possible causes of surgical revision in this set of patients.
conclusionsThe aim of this study is to evaluate the most frequent complications that can lead to revision in spine tumor patients, to provide suggestions on how to prevent these events and to offer reasonable strategies to properly plan and perform a revision surgery.
