Morphological parameters of fourth lumbar spinous process palpation: a three-dimensional reconstruction of computed tomography.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06707571 (Ultrasongraphy Guided Spinal Anesthesia Versus Landmark in Lower Abdominal Surgeries in Cancer Patients), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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

Abstract
backgroundThe localization of lumbar fourth spinous process (L4-SP) is an important anatomical landmark, and identifying its accurate position is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of waist diseases.
methodsFive hundred participants were scanned with positive and lateral computed tomography (CT), which aimed to clarify anatomic characteristics of L4-SP. Anatomical parameters of the surface localization of L4-SP were measured and recorded through a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction.
resultsFive hundred participants were classified into three types according to the position of BC with the iliac spine. There are just 266 that the line between the highest point of the iliac spine on both sides located on L4-SP (type I, 53.20%), 16 above L4-SP (type II, 3.20%), and 218 below L4-SP (type III, 43.60%). BC in type I (15.92 ± 1.30 mm) is longer than type III (15.56 ± 1.32 mm). While the angle combined with AB and BC is different in the three groups, the angle in type I (173.00 ± 4.83°) is larger than that in type II (164.69 ± 5.50°) and type III (159.45 ± 8.39°). Other measurements were not found any significant differences between above.
conclusionThe traditional palpation for L4-SP is not absolutely exact. The accuracy rate is only 53.20%, and the errors may cause serious consequences.
