Treatment of bilateral sacral insufficiency fractures with sacroplasty in a patient with motor complete tetraplegia.
Article in Spinal cord series and cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionOsteoporosis is a common secondary complication of spinal cord injury, with fragility fractures typically occurring in the lower body and management often is conservative. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 52-year-old male with chronic complete tetraplegia who presented to the emergency room with unremitting autonomic dysreflexia (AD). He was admitted for medical management of the AD when a source of the AD could not be identified. After an extensive workup, the patient was found to have bilateral sacral insufficiency fractures. He subsequently underwent sacroplasty with immediate and full resolution of AD symptoms and return to full premorbid function within 24 h. DISCUSSION: People with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) are at risk for spinal column fragility fractures in addition to lower extremity fractures. Vertebroplasty may be a safe option for treatment of insufficiency fractures in situations where conservative care may put people at risk for significant immobility-associated complications.
