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

purposeThis study aimed to explore the relationships between lumbar lordosis (LL) correction and improvement of postoperative global sagittal alignment and to establish corresponding linear regressions to predict the change in global tilt (GT) based on the corrected LL following adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery.

methodsA total of 240 ASD patients who underwent lumbar correction were enrolled in this multicentre study. The following sagittal parameters were measured pre- and postoperatively: thoracic kyphosis (TK), LL, upper and lower LL (ULL and LLL), pelvic tilt (PT), sagittal vertical axis (SVA) and GT. The correlations among the changes in GT (△GT), SVA (△SVA), PT (△PT), TK (△TK), LL (△LL), ULL (△ULL) and LLL (△LLL) were assessed, and linear regressions were conducted to predict △GT, △SVA, △PT and △TK from △LL, △ULL and △LLL.

results△LL was statistically correlated with △GT (r = 0.798, P < 0.001), △SVA (r = 0.678, P < 0.001), △PT (r = 0.662, P < 0.001) and △TK (r = - 0.545, P < 0.001), and the outcomes of the linear regressions are: △GT = 3.18 + 0.69 × △LL (R

conclusionSurgical correction of LL could contribute to the restoration of global sagittal morphology following ASD surgery. These models were established to predict the changes in sagittal parameters, in particular △GT, determined by △LL, which has not been previously done and may help to customize a more precise correction plan for ASD patients.
