Custom-Made 3D-Printed Implants for Anterior Column Reconstruction in the Upper Cervical Spine after Intralesional Extracapsular Excision-Report of 2 Cases and Literature Review.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The use of three-dimensional (3D)-printed custom-made implants is spreading in the orthopedics field for the reconstruction of bone losses or for joint replacement, thanks to their unparalleled versatility. In particular, this novel technology opens new perspectives to formulate custom-made fixation strategies for the upper cervical region, sacrum and pelvis, where reconstruction is challenging. We report and analyze the literature concerning upper cervical reconstruction with 3D-printed personalized implants after tumor surgery, and discuss two cases of patients where this technology was used to reconstruct the anterior column after extracapsular debulking of C2 recurrent chordoma at our institution.
