Spinal health in 40 patients in the initial stage of laboural life. Morfogeometric, biological and environmental study.
Article in Orthopedic reviews, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionAssuming that spinal shape is a genetic expression, its analysis and acquired factors could assess their respective contribution to early spine deterioration. MATERIAL AND
methodsA geometric morphometric analysis was retrospectively performed on sagittal lumbar MRI of young patients with back pain to identify lumbar spine shape changes. Using Geometric Morphometrics, findings were analyzed with anthropometric, radiological, and clinical variables.
results80 cases under 26 years of age were collected, 55 men (mean age 22.81) and 25 women (mean age 23.24). MRI abnormalities were reported in 57.5%: single altered disc (N=17), root compromises (N=8), and transition anomalies (35%).In the non-normal MRI subgroup, shape variation included: increased lordosis, enlarged vertebral body, canal stenosis, and lumbarization of S1. In non-Spanish origin patients, lumbar straightening and segmental deformities were prevalent. Morphometrics findings showed that lumbosacral transition anomalies are frequently underreported.
conclusionsGenetic factors could be the main determinants of abnormality in MRIs under 26 years. The primary markers are transitional abnormalities, segmental deformities, and canal stenosis. In foreign populations, shape changes could suggest spine overload at an early age.
