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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo explore the value of modified subcutaneous lumbar spine index (MSLSI) as a predictor for short-term effectiveness of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in treatment of lumbar degenerative disease (LDD).

methodsBetween February 2014 and October 2019, 450 patients who were diagnosed as LDD and received single-segment TLIF were included in the study. Based on the MSLSI measured by preoperative lumbar MRI, the patients were sorted from small to large and divided into three groups (

resultsThere was no significant difference in operation time, length of incision, antibiotic use time after operation, walking exercise time after operation, drainage tube placement time, drainage volume on the 1st day after operation, drainage volume on the 2nd day after operation, and total drainage volume between groups (

conclusionMSLSI can predict the short-term effectiveness of TLIF in treatment of LDD. Patients with high MSLSI suffer more intra-operative blood loss, longer hospital stay, and higher incidence of nerve root injury and postoperative incision complications.
