Multiple Spinal Tuberculosis with Severe Kyphosis: A Case Report.

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
Background: The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical efficacy of a patient with multiple tuberculosis of the spine combined with severe kyphosis. Case Summary: A 56-year-old male patient presented with low back pain with numbness and fatigue in both lower extremities for 5 months. Chest and back showed intermittent acid pain. The patient had not a history of constitutional symptoms. Preoperative X-ray and CT examination revealed multiple vertebral segmental bone destruction, multiple abscess calcification, and severe kyphosis. Preoperative MRI examination showed that the tuberculous abscess broke through the spinal canal and compressed the spinal cord and nerve roots. The patient underwent posterior lumbar abscess debridement, expanded decompression of the spinal canal, and nerve lysis in our hospital. The operation time was 70 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 200 ml. The postoperative drainage volume was 250 ml. The patient was hospitalized for a total of 13 days, and the patient's vital signs were stable before and after surgery. The patient was satisfied with the treatment. Conclusion: For the patient with multiple spinal tuberculosis complicated with severe kyphosis and multiple calcified abscesses in this study, we considered performing abscess debridement to relieve the symptoms of back pain and achieved good clinical efficacy.
