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

Background: An innovative prone cervical spine surgical position using a body-shape plaster bed with skull traction (BSPST) was compared with the traditional prone surgical position with horseshoe headrests. Methods: A total of 47 patients, undergoing posterior cervical spine surgery for cervical spine fracture, were retrospectively classified into two groups, the BSPST group ( Results: All the operations went smoothly. The mean recovery rate was 56.30% in the BSPST group and 48.55% in the traditional group ( Conclusions: This is the first study to describe a combined body-shape plaster bed and skull traction as an innovative cervical spine-prone surgical position that is simple, safe, and stable, intraoperative traction direction adjustable, reproducible, and economical for posterior cervical spine fracture surgery, and potentially other cervical and upper dorsal spine surgeries in the prone position. Additionally, this position provides the surgeons with a comfortable surgical field and can be easily achieved in most orthopedic operation rooms.
