MIS technique for separation surgery in lumbar spine metastatic disease.
Article in Neurosurgical focus: Video, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Around 40% of cancer patients present with spinal metastases (SM), the lumbar spine being the second most involved site (15%-30%) after the thoracic (60%-80%). Since the development of separation surgery, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has increasingly been applied to approach SM, mirroring benefits yielded in the degenerative realm. Moreover, preoperative embolization potentially enhances local control for certain radioresistant histologies. Carbon fiber-reinforced PEEK hardware reduces image artifact, facilitating more accurate follow-up and radiotherapeutic planning. Additionally, short-segment cement-augmented constructs may be beneficial to decrease surgical morbidity and operative risk in this population. The authors present a lumbar spinal metastasis treated with MIS techniques. The video can be found here: https://stream.cadmore.media/r10.3171/2024.1.FOCVID23222.
