Multiple dimensions of radiographic reconstruction for the optimal operative strategy of sacral meningeal cysts.

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 and purposeThe contents and subtypes of sacral cysts are sophisticated in many cases. We applied multiple dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstruction to preoperatively clarify the specific subtype of sacral meningeal cysts. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe preoperatively used multimodal neural reconstruction MRI sequences to evaluate 76 patients with sacral cysts. The linear nerve roots were precisely traced based on sagittal or coronal images processed at various angles and levels which was conducive to the design of the operation strategy.
resultsCysts with nerve passage were detected in 47 cases (62%, 47/76), whereas cysts without nerve roots were detected in 24 cases (32%, 24/76). Five patients had mixed cysts with or without nerve roots. Intraoperative exploration results proved the high accuracy of image reconstruction; only one cyst without a nerve root was misdiagnosed prior to surgery.
conclusionMRI reconstruction based on the three-dimensional fast imaging employing steady-state acquisition T2 sequence precisely tracked the nerve roots of sacral cysts and guided the optimal strategy during surgery.
