Minimally Invasive Instrumentation of the Cervical Spine: Past, Present, and Future.
Article in Acta neurochirurgica. Supplement, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Posterior cervical instrumentation and fusion procedures are becoming more and more common with the aging population and rising numbers of multisegmental and revision procedures. The instrumentation of the cervical spine has so far been performed almost exclusively via open approaches. Over the past two decades, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques have gained increasing popularity. To date, only a few attempts to instrument the cervical spine in a minimally invasive fashion have been reported. The following article, after a detailed review of the currently available literature, overviews MIS in dorsal cervical instrumentation and past, present and future techniques, and it discusses the current limitations. Nevertheless, and because of the multiple advantages of MIS instrumentation, a lot of work remains to be carried out to fully establish MIS procedures for posterior cervical instrumentation.
