Remodeling of Lumbar Spinal Osteoid Osteoma Resected With Microscopic Surgery in a 15-Year-Old Basketball Player: A Case Report.

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
This case report focuses on a 15-year-old competitive-level high school basketball player who experienced chronic low back pain. Diagnostic imaging revealed osteoid osteoma in the L5 posterior element, causing osteosclerotic deformity of the left lamina and more inferior facet. To return him to the condition of sports activity, less invasive surgery of microscopic tumor resection with autologous bone grafting was planned instead of CT-guided ablation, which can cause thermal injury to nearby tissues. This procedure could preserve spinal structures, including the facet, pedicle, and paravertebral muscles. The day after surgery, the patient experienced a complete resolution of lower back pain. He gradually resumed light exercise two months postoperatively. Three-month follow-up CT imaging revealed bone remodeling at the resection site, to return to complete basketball activities. Over five years, no tumor recurrence or symptoms were observed, and he maintained his competitive activity level.
