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

In this narrative review, we aim to describe the clinical features, diagnosis, and management of common primary osseous tumors affecting the posterior elements of the spine in children. We searched PubMed, Mendeley, and Google Scholar using the terms primary osseous tumors of the spine in children, tumors of the posterior elements of the spine, and names of individual tumors. The clinical features, investigations, and treatment modalities were analyzed, and a narrative review of the topic was prepared. We have included 54 studies published in the last 20 years. The majority are isolated reports or case series. Tumors of the posterior elements of the spine are rare. They are common in children and the majority of them are benign. Pain and deformity are common presentations. It is better to perform thorough investigations of children complaining of back pain to rule out primary tumors of the posterior elements of the spine.
