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

backgroundScoliosis behavior after curettage of spinal osteoid osteoma has been not clarified as most studies regarding scoliosis secondary to osteoid osteoma (OO) were case reports. The aims of this study were to investigate (1) clinical and radiographic features of scoliosis secondary to OO; (2) scoliosis behavior after Curettage of OO.

methodsA retrospective study was performed at patients who were diagnosed as OO clinically or pathologically from July 1998 to December 2019 in a single institution. Age, gender, location of pain, location of lesion and curve pattern of scoliosis were collected preoperatively. Intraoperative blood loss, operation time and surgical complications were documented. VAS scores and curve magnitude were collected pre- and postoperatively and at last follow-up.

resultsThe mean operation time was 124 ± 32 min and the average intraoperative blood loss was 274 ± 134 ml. The mean preoperative VAS score was 6.2 ± 2.7, and the mean postoperative VAS score was 2.1 ± 1.8. Thoracic scoliosis was improved from 22.7 ± 10.6° to 6.2 ± 4.3° after operation, and to 4.1 ± 4.3° at last follow-up. Lumbar scoliosis was improved from 18.1 ± 7.4° to 6.7 ± 5.2° after operation, and to 5.3 ± 3.9° at last follow-up. Trunk shift was improved from 34.7 ± 12.4  to 10.5 ± 7.2 mm after operation, and to 8.4 ± 5.6 mm at last follow-up. There was no significant differences as to sagittal radiographic parameters (P > 0.05).

conclusionPatients with spinal OO had a significantly high incidence of scoliosis. Patients could get rapid relief of pain and scoliosis with low occurrence. Night pain, pain at the concave side of curve, normal sagittal alignment could help differentiate it from scoliosis associated with lumbar disc herniation.
