Multilevel posterior spinal fusion following percutaneous third generation kyphoplasty complicated by vertebral compression fracture progression.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. 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
Newer third generation percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKs) may minimize risks associated with older generation kyphoplasties such as new adjacent fractures, fracture progression, cement leakage, neurologic sequelae, and kyphosis. Additionally, posterior pedicle spinal fusion (PPSF) may minimize risk of long-term complications following PKs while maximizing the benefits of stable spinal alignment. The patient developed adjacent fracture progression, posterior retropulsion, and kyphosis following third generation kyphoplasty. Vertebral compression fracture progression was corrected and prolonged symptomatic relief was successfully achieved with T11-L4 PPSF and L1-L2 laminectomy. Postoperative follow-ups at 2, 4, 7 weeks, 1 and 2 years showed continued symptomatic improvement in back pain with resolution of thigh and groin pain. This case supports the use of PPSF in third generation PK-related complications to provide long-term symptom relief and improve quality of life in patients with severe osteoporotic compression fractures.
