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

STUDY

designA retrospective study.

objectiveTo develop a new MRI scoring system to assess patients' clinical characteristics, outcomes and complications.

methodsA retrospective 1-year follow-up study of 366 patients with cervical spondylosis from 2017 to 2021. The CCCFLS scores (cervical curvature and balance (CC), spinal cord curvature (SC), spinal cord compression ratio (CR), cerebrospinal fluid space (CFS). Spinal cord and lesion location (SL). Increased Signal Intensity (ISI) were divided into Mild group (0-6), Moderate group (6-12), and Severe group (12-18) for comparison, and the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores, visual analog scale (VAS), numerical rating scale (NRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Nurick scores were evaluated. Correlation and regression analyses were performed between each variable and the total model in relation to clinical symptoms and C5 palsy.

resultsThe CCCFLS scoring system was linearly correlated with JOA, NRS, Nurick and NDI scores, with significant differences in JOA scores among patients with different CC, CR, CFS, ISI scores, with a predictive model (R

conclusionCCCFLS scoring system can be divided into mild (0-6). moderate (6-12), severe (12-18) groups. It can effectively reflect the severity of clinical symptoms, and the improvement rate of JOA is better in the severe group, while the preoperative SC and SL scores are closely related to C5 palsy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.
