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

Osteoporosis is a common disease in elderly populations and is a major public health problem worldwide. It is not uncommon for spine surgeons to perform spinal instrumented fusion surgeries for osteoporotic patients. However, in patients with severe osteoporosis, instrumented fusion may result in screw loosening, implant failure or nonunion because of a poor bone quality and decreased pedicle screw stability as well as increased graft subsidence risk. In addition, revision surgeries to correct failed instrumentation are becoming increasingly common in patients with osteoporosis. Therefore, techniques to enhance the fixation of pedicle screws are required in spinal surgeries for osteoporotic patients. To date, various instrumentation methods, such as a supplemental hook, sublaminar taping and sacral alar iliac screws, and modified screwing techniques have been available for reinforcing pedicle screw fixation. In addition, several materials, including polymethylmethacrylate and hydroxyapatite stick/granules, for insertion into prepared screw holes, can be used to enhance screw fixation. Many biomechanical tests support the effectiveness of these augmentation methods. We herein review the current therapeutic strategies for screw fixation and augmentation methods in the surgical treatment of patients with an osteoporotic spine.
