Cementoplasty to cryoablation: review and current status.
Review in BJR open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Recent advances in percutaneous image-guided techniques have empowered interventional radiologists with diverse treatment options for the management of musculoskeletal lesions. Of note, there is growing utility for cementoplasty procedures, with indications ranging from stabilization of bone metastases to treatment of painful vertebral compression fractures. Likewise, cryoablation has emerged as a viable adjunct in the treatment of both primary and secondary bone and soft tissue neoplasms. These treatment options have been progressively incorporated into the multidisciplinary approach to holistic care of patients, alongside conventional radiotherapy, systemic therapy, surgery, and analgesia. This review article serves to outline the indications, technical considerations, latest developments, and evidence for the burgeoning role of cementoplasty and cryoablation in the musculoskeletal system, with an emphasis on pain palliation and tumour control.
