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

In cases of unstable cervical traumatic lesions, the biomechanical superiority of the cervical pedicle screw (CPS) allows the lesion to be stabilized effectively. In this study, we review and summarize the indications, technical guidelines, and potential neurovascular complications and their prevention of the use of the CPS for trauma. For patients with fractured lamina or lateral mass, a CPS is reliable for stabilization. In addition, the CPS can penetrate through a linear cervical spinal pedicle fracture gap and could stabilize three-column injury. CPS reduce the range of surgical approach and preserve the motion segment using short-segment fixation. Fluoroscopy-guided CPS insertion is popular and cost-effective. Image-guided navigation systems improve accuracy. Three-dimensional template-guided CPS placement is simple to use. Most spine surgeons can perform laminoforaminotomy easily. Freehand technique that can be performed quickly without heavy equipment is suitable for emergency situation. Possible complications due to screw misplacement are vertebral artery injury owing to a laterally misplaced screw, dural sac or spinal cord injury from a medially misplaced screw, and nerve root injury caused by a superiorly or inferiorly misplaced screw. To prevent neurovascular complications, meticulous preoperative anatomical evaluation and following the five steps are most important.
