Direct Iliac Screw vs Sacral-2-Alar-Iliac Screws Technique for Sacropelvic Fixation: Technical Nuances and a Review of the Literature.
Article in International journal of spine surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Sacropelvic (SP) fixation is the immobilization of the sacroiliac joint to attain lumbosacral fusion and prevent distal spinal junctional failure. SP fixation is indicated in numerous spinal conditions (eg, scoliosis, multilevel spondylolisthesis, spinal/sacral trauma, tumors, or infections). Many SP fixation techniques have been described in the literature. Currently, the most used surgical techniques for SP fixation are direct iliac screws and sacral-2-alar-iliac screws. There is currently no consensus in the literature on which technique carries more favorable clinical outcomes. In this review, we aim to assess the available data on each technique and discuss their respective advantages and disadvantages. We will also present our experience with a modification of direct iliac screws using a subcrestal approach and outline the future prospects of SP fixation.
