Review in Heliyon, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06034041 (The Effect of Mediclore as an Anti-adhesion Agent and Safety in Full-endoscopic Spine Surgery), which is not on this map. Cited by 4 papers.

1 · What the graph read from 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.

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

Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) is persistent pain and disability following lumbar laminectomy which is associated with decreased quality of life and disability and has been reported in up to 40% of the patients undergoing lumbar laminectomy. Several approaches have been introduced to reduce the rate of the FBSS. Among these, applying anti-adhesive barrier gels have been studied with interest with controversial results. The aim of the current study was to determine the effects of anti-adhesive barrier gels on functional outcome and recurrence of patients undergoing lumbar disc surgery. We searched databases including EMBASE, PUBMED, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and scholar databases until November 2019. To assess the heterogeneity across included studies was used Cochran's Q and I-square (I
