Effects of Percutaneous Kyphoplasty for the Treatment of Thoracic Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures with or without Intravertebral Cleft in Elderly Patients.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Background: Few studies have focused on percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of thoracic osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) with intervertebral cleft (IVC). Hence, the objective of this retrospective study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of PKP in elderly patients with thoracic OVCFs, with or without IVC. Methods: A total of 106 patients were enrolled in this study and divided into two groups: the IVC group and the NIVC group (without IVC). Radiographic measures included anterior vertebral height (AVH), thoracic kyphosis (TK), lumbar lordosis (LL), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), and sacral slope (SS). Clinical function measures included Oswestry disability index (ODI) and visual analog scale (VAS) scores. Results: There were no significant differences in the preoperative basic data between the groups classified as IVC and NIVC. However, both groups showed significant improvements in AVH and TK throughout the follow-up periods compared to the preoperative measurements ( Conclusion: PKP is an adoptable measure to treat thoracic OVCFs with or without IVC. Our study revealed that the NIVC group was superior to the IVC group in terms of improved vertebral height and pain recovery at long-term follow-up (3 years).
