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

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is vulnerable to fracture, and the missed diagnosis can lead to neurological deterioration. Herein, we present the conus medullaris syndrome due to aggravation of the missed spinal fracture in an 85-year-old woman with AS who underwent hip surgery. She underwent osteosynthesis in a supine position with supports under her shoulders and head due to spine deformity with AS, but was fully supine without supports after surgery. She showed complete paraplegia at postoperative 12 h. The re-reading radiological imaging showed the missed spinal fracture, of which the deteriorated dislocation was revealed on the re-examined radiological evaluation. This deterioration was not recovered ultimately despite an emergent surgery. A thorough preoperative assessment is essential to prevent the missed diagnosis of spinal fracture and minimise deterioration due to its dislocation, with specific spine precaution during transport, transfer and positioning.
