Diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in early onset scoliosis: A current concept review.
Review in Journal of children's orthopaedics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Substantial advances in the treatment of early onset scoliosis (EOS) over the past two to three decades have resulted in significant improvements in health-related quality of life of affected children. In addition to classifications that address the marked heterogeneity of this patient population, increasing understanding of the natural history of the disease, and new implants and treatment techniques have resulted in innovations unlike any other area of pediatric orthopedics. The growing understanding of the interaction between spinal and thoracic growth, as well as dependent lung maturation, has had a lasting impact on the treatment strategy of this potentially life-threatening disease. The previous treatment approach with early corrective fusion gave way to a growth-friendly concept. Despite the steady development of new growth-friendly surgical treatment options, whose efficacy still needs to be validated, as well as a revival of conservative growth control with serial casts and/or braces, the psychosocial burden of the long lasting and complication-prone treatments remains high. As a consequence, EOS still represents one of the greatest pediatric orthopedic challenges.
