Value of Lumbar MRI Parameters in the Evaluation of Postoperative Curative Effect on Patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation and Analysis of Risk Factors.
Article in Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 2 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
objectiveFor exploring the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters in the evaluation of postoperative curative effect on patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) and analyzing risk factors.
methodsTotally 60 patients confirmed with LDH in our hospital between Jan. 2018 and Jan. 2020 were enrolled into the observation group (Obs group) given transforaminal endoscopic discectomy (TED). In addition, 60 individuals with low back pain but no LDH over the same time span were enrolled into the control group (Con group). The two groups were given lumbar MRI, and the cross-sectional area differences of bilateral psoas major muscle (BPMM) and multifidus muscle of the patients before and after therapy were evaluated. The visual analog scale (VAS) and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores of the two groups before and after therapy were compared, and the associations of the cross-sectional area differences of BPMM and multifidus muscle with efficacy, VAS score, and JOA score were analyzed. According to MacNab criteria, the clinical efficacy on the patients was evaluated, on which the patients were grouped. In addition, logistic regression analysis was performed for analyzing risk factors of clinical efficacy, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn for analyzing the value of risk factors with differences in clinical efficacy evaluation.
resultsThe Obs group presented larger cross-sectional area differences of BPMM and multifidus muscle than the Con group (both
conclusionThe cross-sectional area differences of BPMM and multifidus muscle can serve as reference indexes for evaluating the postoperative efficacy on patients with LDH.
