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

Introduction: Traumatic lumbar disc herniation (TLDH) without fracture in the Research question: This study provides a systematic discussion of various aspects related to the diagnosis of TLDH. Material and methods: This review includes 12 cases of TLDH with MR-images since 2009 published in the PubMed and one adjunct illustration. The cases were categorized into two groups for a comprehensive analysis, TLDH with or without Results: Isolated traumatic lumbar disc herniation is possible, but it is required exclude cases with fractures in the Discussion and conclusion: Trauma with related injury mechanisms is the highest priority for the diagnosis of TLDH. Low-grade disc degeneration without significant instability could be accepted for diagnosing TLDH. A TLDH on MR images might show a slightly lower T2-signal compared to the CSF and a homogeneous T1-signal like the spinal cord, as well as a similar STIR-signal of the sequestration and CSF. If necessary, a histological examination could be performed to evaluate the degenerative changes in the injured disc, especially to assist the evaluation due to legal reasons.
