[Vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty : A critical statement].
Review in Der Radiologe, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundDespite optimal drug-conservative therapy, a relevant percentage of patients with vertebral compression fractures (WKF) do not experience any relevant improvement in their pain symptoms. Vertebroplasty (VP) and kyphoplasty (KP) are described in the literature as percutaneous interventional procedures for the treatment of WKF.
objectiveAssessment of the effectiveness of the VP and KP in the treatment of WKF and discussion of the procedures in the context of the current literature. MATERIAL AND
methodsPresentation of the fundamentals of VP and KP and their further developments. Description of indications and contraindications. Discussion of the current literature and recommendations of the individual professional associations.
resultsIn patients with vertebral compression fractures, VP or KP of the affected vertebral body leads to a pain reduction in more than 90% of cases. Clinically relevant complications occur in less than 1% of interventions.
conclusionVP and KP are a safe and effective method for treating painful WKF. Optimal patient selection improves the clinical outcome.
