Feasibility of Single-Stage Posterior Passive Correction and Fusion Surgery for Congenital Scoliosis in Adolescent Patients Who Have Attained Skeletal Maturity.
Article in Asian spine journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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
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
STUDY
designRetrospective study. PURPOSE: To report the perioperative and radiological outcomes of single-stage posterior passive correction and fusion (SSPPCF) in adolescent patients who present with congenital scoliosis. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: The surgical treatment for congenital scoliosis is complex. There is no definitive guide on surgical options for skeletally matured adolescent patients who have congenital scoliosis.
methodsPatients with congenital scoliosis who underwent SSPPCF using a pedicle screw system were reviewed. We identified the following three surgical indications: (1) hemivertebra or wedge vertebra over the thoracic or thoracolumbar region with structural lumbar curves, (2) hemivertebra or wedge vertebra at the lumbar region with significant pelvic obliquity or sacral slanting, and (3) mixed or complex congenital scoliosis. The demographic, perioperative, and radiographic data of these patients were collected.
resultsThirty-four patients were reviewed. The mean patient age was 14.6±3.4 years. There were 13 hemivertebrae, three wedged vertebrae, two butterfly vertebrae, three hemivertebrae with butterfly vertebra, eight unsegmented bars, and five multiple complex lesions. The average surgical duration was 219.4±68.8 minutes. The average blood loss was 1,208.4±763.5 mL. Seven patients required allogeneic blood transfusion. The mean hospital stay duration was 6.1±2.5 days. The complication rate was 11.8% (4/34): one patient had severe blood loss, one had rod breakage, and two had distal adding-on. The Cobb angle reduced from 65.9°±17.4° to 36.3°±15.3° (p<0.001) with a correction rate (CR) of 44.8%±17.4%. The regional kyphotic angle decreased from 39.9°±20.5° to 27.5°±13.9° (p=0.001) with a CR of 19.3%±49.6%. Radiographic parameters (radiographic shoulder height, clavicle angle, T1 tilt, cervical axis, pelvic obliquity, coronal balance, and apical vertebral translation) showed significant improvement postoperatively.
conclusionsSSPPCF was a feasible option for adolescent patients with congenital scoliosis who were skeletally matured.
