Cantilever method for severe kyphotic deformity correction in spondylitis tuberculosis: A technical note and literature review.
Review in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundThe kyphotic deformity is more than just a cosmetic disfigurement. It is potentially life-threatening and disturbs the quality of life by causing cardiopulmonary dysfunction, spinal imbalance, and other associated problems. Corrective surgery is challenging but it is needed to bring the spinal balance back thus halting the progressiveness of the deformity. The cantilever technique is a gold standard to correct the sagittal plane deformity.
methodsThis is a review article with some case illustrations from Author's experience.
objectiveWe aim to review the cantilever technique for kyphotic correction in spondylitis tuberculosis patients.
conclusionThe cantilever technique is the standard for sagittal plane deformity correction that can be applied for kyphotic deformity correction in spondylitis tuberculosis cases. Developing the safest techniques and instrumentation is crucial to achieving spinal balance with minimal risk of morbidities.
