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
purposeThe sacral alar-iliac screw (SAIS) fixation technique has evolved from spinopelvic fixation which originated from S2AIS to sacroiliac joint fixation, with more reports regarding its application of S2AIS than S1AIS. However, there is a lack of comparative evidence to determine which technique is superior for sacroiliac joint fixation. This study aimed to determine which of the screws was superior in terms of implantation safety and biomechanical stability for sacroiliac joint fixation.
methodsCT data of 80 normal pelvises were analyzed to measure the insertable range, trajectory lengths and widths of both S1AIS and S2AIS on 3D reconstruction models. Φ 6.5 mm and 8.0 mm screws were implanted on the left and right sides of fifty 3D printed pelvic models respectively to observe for breach of screw implantation. Ten synthetic pelvis models were used to simulate type C Tile injuries, and divided into 2 groups with an anterior plate and posterior fixation using one S1AIS or S2AIS on each side. The stiffness and maximum load of the plated and fixated models were measured under vertical loading.
resultsThe trajectory lengths and widths of the S1AIS and S2AIS were similar (p > 0.05) and there was no breach for Φ 6.5 mm SAIS. However, both the insertable range and trajectory length on the sacral side of S2AIS (234.56 ± 10.06 mm
conclusionS1AIS and S2AIS have similar screw trajectories and stability. However, S1AIS has a larger insertable range, less breach of the posterior lateral sacral cortex and longer trajectory length on the sacral side than S2AIS, which indicates S1AIS has higher implantation safety and a trend of better mechanical performance over S2AIS for sacroiliac joint fixation. Furthermore, S2AIS with an excessively large diameter should be used with caution for sacroiliac joint fixation.
