The association between vertical laminar fracture and recurrent kyphosis after implant removal of Thoracolumbar burst fracture: a retrospective study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundSurgeons often encounter recurrent kyphosis of Cobb angle following thoracolumbar burst fracture surgery. Some factors affecting postoperative correction loss have been studied in previous studies, but few have examined the relationship between laminar fractures and postoperative loss of correction.
methodsThe clinical data of 86 patients with thoracolumbar burst fracture who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to our Department of Spine Surgery between 2013 and 2020 was retrospectively analyzed. To examine the association between laminar fracturs and postoperative correction loss, demographic and radiographic characteristics of the two groups were analyzed.
resultsThe presence or absence of laminar fractures was statistically different between the two groups (P < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that laminar fractures and preoperative Cobb were statistically significant in the two groups. There were statistically significant differences in the degree of injury of laminar fractures in the coronal plane between the two groups (P < 0.05).
conclusionThis study investigated that the presence or absence of laminar fractures and preoperative Cobb contribute to loss of correction after thoracolumbar burst fracture surgery. There was a statistically significant difference between full-length and partial-length laminar fractures on the loss of postoperative correction of thoracolumbar burst fractures with laminar fractures.
