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

Background: Endplate fractures is an important factor affecting the curative effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty for spinal fracture. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of sealing endplate fracture with bone cement on minimally invasive treatment of spinal fracture. Methods: A total of 98 patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures combined with endplate fractures treated with bone cement surgery in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. They were grouped according to whether bone cement was involved in the endplate fractures. Group A: bone cement was not only distributed in the fractured vertebral body, but also dispersed into the endplate fractures. Group B: bone cement was confined to the fractured vertebra but did not diffuse into the cracks of the endplate. The basic information, imaging changes of the fractured vertebral body, VAS score, ODI score, bone cement distribution and postoperative complications of the two groups were analyzed and compared. Results: The height of the injured vertebra and the kyphotic Cobb angle in the two groups were significantly improved after surgery, but the anterior height of the vertebra in group B was lower than that in group A and the kyphotic Cobb angle was higher than that in group A at the last follow-up ( Conclusion: Diffusion of bone cement into the cracks of the endplate may also restore and maintain the height of the injured vertebra, relieve pain and restore lumbar function. However, diffusion of bone cement into the cracks of the endplate can increase the incidence of cement leakage and adjacent vertebral fractures.
