Analysis of clinical efficacy after PKP in patients of different genders.
Article in Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty (PKP) in male and female patients.
methodThe clinical data of patients treated with PKP in our hospital from January 2018 to October 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. These patients were divided into female group and male group according to gender differences. The visual analogue scale (VAS) and activity function score (LAS) were recorded before operation, immediately after operation and 1 year after operation, and postoperative complications such as cement leakage and recurrent vertebral fracture were recorded. The above observation indexes between the 2 groups were statistically compared.
resultsA total of 171 patients (118 in female group and 53 in male group) were included. There was no other difference between the 2 groups except that thoracic vertebral fracture was more common in women (P < .05). The VAS of female group and male group were (7.14 ± 0.61) and (7.11 ± 0.51) before operation, (3.05 ± 0.66) and (2.89 ± 0.64) after operation, 1 year after operation (1.10 ± 0.50) and (1.02 ± 0.37). There was no difference in each period between the 2 groups (P > .05). But there was a significant decrease after operation, which was recognized between the 2 groups (P < .05); The activity scores of female group and male group were (3.08 ± 0.48) and (3.07 ± 0.43) before operation, (1.86 ± 0.42) and (1.85 ± 0.50) after operation, 1 year after operation (1.01 ± 0.92) and (1.02 ± 0.14). There was no difference in each period between the 2 groups (P > .05). But there was a significant decrease after operation, which was recognized between the 2 groups (P < .05). Postoperative cement leakage was revealed in 21 cases (12.28%), 16 cases (13.56%) in female group and 5 cases (9.43%) in male group, which was no significant difference between the 2 groups. During the 1-year follow-up, postoperative recurrent vertebral fracture was revealed in 4 cases (2.34%), 2 cases (1.69%) in the female group and 2 case (3.77%) in the male group, which was also no significant difference between the 2 groups.
conclusionPatients treated with PKP can immediately get pain relief and activity function improvement. PKP is a safe and effective minimally invasive surgery for both female and male patients.
