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

Objective: To study the optimum entry point and trajectory for anterior transpedicular root screw (ATPRS) placement into the lower cervical spine (LCS), so as to provide a basis for clinical application. Methods: A retrospective analysis of cervical CT images of patients who underwent cervical CT examination in the Spinal Surgery of Ningbo No. 6 Hospital from January 2020 to August 2021 was conducted. The data were obtained and modeled. On the coronal plane, the vertebral body (VB) between the anterior midline of cervical vertebral segments C Results: Zone i of each segment, with the longest screw length, was the best area for screw placement. In all patients, the horizontal angles of vertebrae C Conclusions: ATPRS placement can be used for LCS internal fixation, and the precise screw placement parameters can be simulated by the software, which provides theoretical basis for its future clinical application.
