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
Background: Transpedicular screws have proven the test of time, yet they are not devoid of complications. Many newer techniques such as 2 D and 3D fluoroscopy,O arm Navigation assisted surgery, robotic assisted surgery have come into existence to the increase precision in pedicle screw insertion. But, complications do occur in their presence. We propose an Extra pedicular screw and hook system (EPSH) system with similar biomechanical property, better safety profile and short learning curve compared to traditional pedicle screw. Purpose: To Compare the pull out strength of Traditional Pedicle screw Vs Extra pedicular screw and hook system(EPSH). Methods: Biomechanical testing was conducted according ASTM F543 guidelines to compare the pull-out strength of EPSH based construct and traditional pedicle screw construct. Six saw bone samples in each group considered. Screw of 5.5 mm diameter and length of 35 mm was used in both the groups. Pull out strength assessed by giving 5 mm/min axial load. The axial load Vs displacement of the screw were recorded and plotted. The maximum load required for screw failure is noted in both the group. Statistical analysis was done. Results: The mean peak load of pedicle screw group was found to be 1670.9 ± 393.2 N with mean displacement at peak load was found to be 13.44 ± 1.7 mm and in EPSH group it was 1416.4 ± 341.4 N and 15.78 ± 3.9 mm respectively. A paired Conclusion: EPSH has shown to have almost similar biomechanical property as that pedicle screw construct. With Addition of the hook, it provides an extra rotational stability as well. Being an extra-pedicular screw it has high safety profile and needs less expertise for insertion.
