Delayed Hemorrhage Followed by Vertebral Artery Injury during Cervical Anterior Controllable Antedisplacement and Fusion Surgery: Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Orthopaedic surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundVertebral artery injury (VAI) during cervical spine surgery is rare. Anterior controllable ante-displacement and fusion (ACAF) surgery is a novel technique for treating degenerative cervical spine disorders, especially ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. To date, there have been no reports of VAI during cervical ACAF surgery. Here, we report a rare case of perioperative complication of VAI during ACAF surgery. The available English literature that provides treatment instructions were reviewed. CASE PRESENTATION: A patient diagnosed with mixed ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) underwent ACAF surgery from C2-C6. Two level transverse foramina were ruptured, and severe bleeding was encountered during ACAF osteotomy. Hemostatic tamponade was performed using bone waxes. The patient had delayed hemorrhage on postoperative day 6. Emergence angiography revealed two vertebral artery pseudoaneurysms in the ruptured transverse foramina. A balloon-expandable covered stent was deployed to treat the pseudoaneurysm. The patient recovered without complications.
conclusionACAF surgery is a good choice for multiple-level OPLL disease, but special attention should be paid to VAI in the perioperative period. Intraoperative tamponade with bone wax and postoperative digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are effective in preventing disaster-related hemorrhage.
