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

case presentationA 13-year-old female with congenital diaphragmatic hernia-associated pulmonary hypertension presented with severe and rapidly progressing scoliosis. The patient suffered from chronic respiratory failure and high risk of hypertensive crisis with potentially life-threating consequences. The scoliosis was treated with a multidisciplinary approach combining preoperative halo-gravity traction, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support and posterior spinal instrumented fusion. After 2 years of follow-up, results are excellent.

conclusionsThe treatment combination reported here for the first time aims to limit surgical aggressiveness. It could be an effective and safe approach for treating severe spinal deformities in very fragile patients with high surgical risk.
