Optimizing percutaneous vertebroplasty: extra-facet puncture for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
purposeTo assess the safety and efficacy of the extra-facet puncture technique applied in unilateral percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) for treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
methodsDemographics (age, gender, body mass index and underlying diseases) were recorded for analyzing. Visual analog scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores as well as their corresponding minimal clinically important difference (MCID) were used to evaluate clinical outcomes. The segmental kyphotic angle, the vertebral compression ratio and bone cement distribution pattern were evaluated by the plain radiographs. The facet joint violation (FJV) was defined by the postoperative computed tomography scan. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate relationships between multiple risk factors and residual back pain.
resultsVAS and ODI scores in both traditional puncture group and extra-facet puncture group were significantly decreased after PVP surgery (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was observed between the two groups according to VAS and ODI scores. The proportion of patients achieving MCID of VAS and ODI scores was higher in extra-facet puncture group as compared to traditional puncture group within a month (p < 0.05). Finally, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that FJV (odds ratio 16.38, p < 0.001) and unilateral bone cement distribution (OR 5.576, p = 0.020) were significant predictors of residual back pain after PVP surgery.
conclusionsExtra-facet puncture percutaneous vertebroplasty can decrease the risk of FJV and it also has the advantage of more satisfied bone cement distribution.
