Traumatic posterior fracture-dislocation of the fifth lumbar vertebra: report of two cases with review of literature.
Review 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. Cited by 2 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
introductionPosterior fracture-dislocation of fifth lumbar vertebra (L5) is a rare injury pattern. Existing Aihara classification system lacks its mention. CASE PRESENTATION: We report two cases of posterior fracture-dislocation of L5 with comminuted fracture of body that presented with cauda equina syndrome. The smaller anteroinferior vertebral body fragment of L5 had its relationship maintained with sacrum, whereas the larger posterosuperior fragment of the body was retropulsed. Decompression and instrumented fusion through posterior approach yielded good clinical outcome. DISCUSSION: We also present literature review with special emphasis on fracture characteristics and suggest its possible inclusion as a separate sub-type in existing Aihara classification.
