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

objectiveDisplacement of bone cement following percutaneous vertebral augmentation for Kümmell disease (KD) presents a significant concern, resulting in increasing back pain and compromising daily activities. Unfortunately, current literature does not yet establish a validated and minimally invasive surgical intervention for this issue. This study aims to investigate the effects of a novel hollow pedicle screw combined with kyphoplasty (HPS-KP) in preventing bone cement displacement following simply percutaneous kyphoplasty for the management of KD.

methodsA total of 22 patients (six males, 16 females, averagely aged 77.18 ± 7.63 years) with KD without neurological deficits treated by HPS-KP at the hospital between March 2021 and June 2022 were hereby selected, among which, there were three stage I KD cases, 12 stage II KD cases, and seven stage III KD cases according to Li's classification. Bone mineral density (BMD), spinal X-ray, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were examined before the operation. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative complications were all recorded. The follow-up focused on visual analog scale (VAS) score, Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI), anterior vertebral height (AVH), middle vertebral height (MVH), posterior vertebral height (PVH), wedge-shape affected vertebral Cobb angle (WCA), and bisegmental Cobb angle (BCA). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Bonferroni post-hoc test was employed for performing multiple comparisons in the present study.

resultsAll patients having received the operation successfully were followed up for more than 8 months (ranging from 8 to 18 months). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and BMD (T-score) were 39.09 ± 5.64 min, 14.09 ± 3.98 ml, and - 3.30 ± 0.90 g/cm

conclusionHPS-KP could be safe and effective in the treatment of KD without neurological deficits, effectively relieving the symptoms of patients, restoring partial vertebral height, and preventing the occurrence of bone cement displacement.
