Systemic changes associated with quality of life after surgical treatment of kyphotic deformity in patients with ankylosing spondylitis: a systematic review.
Synthesis 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 4 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
purposeIn addition to changes in the skeletal system after spinal osteotomy for treatment of kyphotic deformity in advanced-stage AS patients, many other systemic changes associated with the patients' quality of life were reported. The purpose of this study was to conduct a systemic review of the literature to determine systemic changes associated with patients' quality of life following correction of kyphotic deformity secondary to ankylosing spondylitis.
methodsWe searched the databases PubMed, EMBASE, Clinicalkey and Cochrane Library without time restriction. Selected papers were assessed by published guidelines. We investigated systemic changes associated with patients' quality of life after surgical treatment of advanced ankylosing spondylitis.
resultsThe initial search yielded 888 citations. Twelve of these studies met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Two were level II evidence study, and ten were level III evidence studies. Changes were reported including aorta length, abdominal morphology, digestive function, cardiopulmonary function, psychological status, and sexual activity.
conclusionsIn addition to skeletal changes after spinal osteotomy for treatment of kyphotic deformity in advanced-stage AS patients, many other changes were reported. Spine surgeons should pay more attention to these life quality-related changes and be aware of potential risks when performing surgery for advanced-stage AS patients. These slides can be retrieved under Electronic Supplementary Material.
