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

Key Clinical Message: Spine surgeons should be aware of the possibility of anterior displacement of the grafted bone during PLIF and the potential for severe complications that may arise because of such displacement so that preparations can be made for a proper response. Abstract: We report two cases of anterior displacement of the grafted bone after posterior lumbar interbody fusion (Graphical Abstract A-D). The patients did not require additional surgery. The anterior migration of grafted bone or cage can cause damage to anterior organs and blood vessels. Therefore, a careful surgical procedure is necessary.
