Surgical treatment of high-grade spondylolisthesis: Technique and results.
Review in Journal of orthopaedics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
backgroundSurgical management of high-grade spondylolisthesis is not only challenging but also controversial, from in situ fusion to complete reduction. We report our results of a safe three-stage spinal procedure in a single surgical session with seven patients diagnosed high-grade spondylolisthesis. HYPOTHESIS: Posterior fixation combined with interbody fusion is effective on reduction, ossification and clinical outcomes in high-grade spondylolisthesis. PATIENTS AND
methodsThis study is a retrospective review of patients who underwent surgery between 2016 and 2018. The surgical method involved specific installation for deformity reduction, pedicle screw fixation, correction of lumbosacral kyphosis with a specific distraction maneuver, wide decompression, gradual reduction of the deformity, and sometimes maintenance of the reduction with interbody fusion. Patients were checked out at 2, 6 and 12 months and yearly after the procedure. Clinical, radiological, Visual Analogic Scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) outcomes measures were collected.
resultsSeven patients with high-grade spondylolisthesis at L5-S1 (2 patients grade II, 4 patients grade IV and 1 patient grade V), with a median age of 37 years [17; 72] were included. Median follow-up was 24 months [12; 25 months]. All patients have a fused joint at 6 months except one. Median lumbosacral angle (LSA) improved from 76°[59; 85] to 94°[76; 104].
conclusionThis procedure allows correct reduction rate of high-grade spondylolisthesis with good clinic-radiologic outcomes. Though surgically demanding, it was safe and reproducible. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV, retrospective.
