Preoperative Planning Using Three-dimensional Printing for Full-endoscopic Spine Surgery: A Technical Note.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Transforaminal full-endoscopic spine surgery (TF-FESS) is a novel minimally invasive spine surgery that requires only an 8-mm skin incision and causes minimal damage to the paravertebral muscles. To perform TF-FESS safely and efficiently, preoperative planning is quite important as the intervention requires anatomical understanding and high technical skills. Recently, three-dimensional (3D) printing has become a useful tool in various surgeries, and several studies have addressed its efficacy; however, there are no reports on the application of 3D printing to FESS. In this study, we present two cases of severe lumbar deformities for which preoperative 3D printing was useful. The 3D printing enabled the surgeons to visualize and plan the drilling of the superior articular process for a successful foraminoplasty at a low cost. The manufacturing equipment cost about USD 900 and is able to produce an actual-size model at a cost of less than USD 10 per patient. In conclusion, preoperative planning using 3D printing should be adopted to safely perform FESS.
