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

Numerous screw fixation systems have evolved in clinical practice as a result of advances in screw insertion technology. Currently, pedicle screw (PS) fixation technology is recognized as the gold standard of posterior lumbar fusion, but it can also have some negative complications, such as screw loosening, pullout, and breakage. To address these concerns, cortical bone trajectory (CBT) has been proposed and gradually developed. However, it is still unclear whether cortical bone trajectory can achieve similar mechanical stability to pedicle screw and whether the combination of pedicle screw + cortical bone trajectory fixation can provide a suitable mechanical environment in the intervertebral space. The present study aimed to investigate the biomechanical responses of the lumbar spine with pedicle screw and cortical bone trajectory fixation. Accordingly, finite element analysis (FEA) and
