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

backgroundTo compare the clinical outcomes of C

methodsThe Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases were searched from inception to November 10, 2020 for studies comparing the clinical outcomes of two types of French-door laminoplasty in the treatment of multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy (MCSM). Review Manager 5.3 was used to analyze the following outcomes: operative time, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative and postoperative Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, recovery rate, cervical curvature, cervical range of motion (ROM), incidence of axial symptoms (AS), and C

resultsA total of eight studies involving 776 patients were included; there were 424 patients in the C
