Application of Titanium Alloy 3D-Printed Artificial Vertebral Body for Stage III Kümmell's Disease Complicated by Neurological Deficits.
Article in Clinical interventions in aging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05396222 (A Prospective Study of the Safety and Efficacy of 3D-printed Custom-made Non-rigid Biomimetic Implant for Anterior Column Reconstruction in Cervical and Thoracolumbar Spine), which is not on this map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
purposeThe current study aimed to compare the clinical and radiographic results of the 3D-printed artificial vertebral body (3DP-AVB) and titanium mesh cage (TMC) for the treatment of Kümmell's disease (KD) complicated by neurological deficits. PATIENTS AND
methodsFrom January 2014 to July 2018, 28 consecutive patients diagnosed with KD and nerve injuries in our department were treated by posterior vertebral column resection and internal fixation. The patients were divided into two groups (3DP-AVB group and TMC group) based on the different anterior column reconstruction implants. Clinical and radiographic parameters were used to evaluate the outcomes.
resultsThe two groups achieved excellent clinical and radiographic results 1 month after surgery with no significant difference (
conclusionThe lower incidence of cage subsidence, with a better long-term efficacy in maintaining the height of the fused segment, relieving back pain, and improving daily life function indicates that the 3DP-AVB may be a superior alternative for KD with neurological deficits.
