Application and Development of Minimally Invasive Techniques in the Treatment of Spinal Metastases.
Review in Technology in cancer research & treatment. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
With the improvement of medical technology, the quality of life and prognosis of patients with malignant tumors have been greatly improved, and surgical treatment strategies for patients with spinal metastatic tumors have received extensive attention. Traditional open surgery for spinal metastases has problems such as large trauma, slow recovery, and influence on subsequent systemic treatment. Minimally invasive spine surgery has similar clinical outcomes to traditional open surgery, but minimally invasive spine surgery is less invasive and has a shorter recovery time. Minimally invasive spine surgery was initially applied to non-neoplastic diseases such as spinal degeneration and trauma, and was gradually applied to the treatment of spinal metastatic tumors and spinal deformities. For patients with spinal metastases, a shorter recovery time is helpful for early postoperative radiotherapy, thereby achieving a more satisfactory tumor control effect. This review discusses the application of minimally invasive spine surgery in the treatment of spinal metastatic tumors from the concept, surgical purpose, indications, and surgical selection, so as to provide reference for clinical practice.
