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
purposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the associated factors of patients with LSS who undergo reoperation after a PLSF in a Hispanic-American population.
methodsA retrospective single-center review was performed from all non-age-related Hispanic-Americans with LSS who underwent one or two-level PLSF from 2008 to 2018. Baseline characteristics were analyzed between the reoperation and no-reoperation group using a bivariate and multivariate analyses.
resultsOut of 425 patients who underwent PLSF, 38 patients underwent reoperation. At a two-year follow-up, the reoperation rate was 6.1% (26/425), mostly due to pseudoarthrosis (39.5%), recurrent stenosis (26.3%), new condition (15.8%), infection (10.5%), hematoma (5.3%), and dural tear (2.6%). Patients who underwent reoperation were more likely to have a preoperative history of epidural steroid injection (ESI) (OR 5.18, P = 0.009), four or more comorbidities (OR 2.69, P = 0.028), and operated only with a posterolateral fusion without intervertebral fusion (OR 2.15, P = 0.032). Finally, the multivariable analysis showed that ESI was the only independent associated factor in patients who underwent reoperation after a PLSF in our group.
conclusionAmong this population who underwent surgery, a reoperation rate at two years of follow-up was less than ten percent. Our study did not find any associated factor inherent to Hispanic-Americans, as ethnic group, who were reoperated after LSS.
