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

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of inherited, multisystem, lysosomal storage disorders involving specific lysosomal enzyme deficiencies that result in the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) secondary to insufficient degradation within cell lysosomes. GAG accumulation affects both primary bone formation and secondary bone growth, resulting in growth impairment. Typical spinal manifestations in MPS are atlantoaxial instability, thoracolumbar kyphosis/scoliosis, and cervical/lumbar spinal canal stenosis. Spinal disorders and their severity depend on the MPS type and may be related to disease activity. Enzyme replacement therapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has advantages regarding soft tissues; however, these therapeutic modalities are not effective for bone or cartilage and MPS-related bone deformity including the spine. Because spinal disorders show the most serious deterioration among patients with MPS, spinal surgeries are required although they are challenging and associated with high anesthesia-related risks. The aim of this review article is to provide the current comprehensive knowledge of representative spinal disease in MPS and its surgical management, including the related pathology, symptoms, and examinations.
