Artificial lamina after laminectomy: Progress, applications, and future perspectives.
Review in Frontiers in surgery, 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
In clinical practice, laminectomy is a commonly used procedure for spinal decompression in patients suffering from spinal disorders such as ossification of ligamentum flavum, lumbar stenosis, severe spinal fracture, and intraspinal tumors. However, the loss of posterior column bony support, the extensive proliferation of fibroblasts and scar formation after laminectomy, and other complications (such as postoperative epidural fibrosis and iatrogenic instability) may cause new symptoms requiring revision surgery. Implantation of an artificial lamina prosthesis is one of the most important methods to avoid post-laminectomy complications. Artificial lamina is a type of synthetic lamina tissue made of various materials and shapes designed to replace the resected autologous lamina. Artificial laminae can provide a barrier between the dural sac and posterior soft tissues to prevent postoperative epidural fibrosis and paravertebral muscle compression and provide mechanical support to maintain spinal alignment. In this paper, we briefly review the complications of laminectomy and the necessity of artificial lamina, then we review various artificial laminae from clinical practice and laboratory research perspectives. Based on a combination of additive manufacturing technology and finite element analysis for spine surgery, we propose a new designing perspective of artificial lamina for potential use in clinical practice.
