Incidence and prognostic factors of residual back pain in patients treated for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 2024.

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
backgroundOsteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) is a common consequence of osteoporosis and can significantly impact the quality of life for affected individuals. Despite treatment options such as vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty, many patients continue to experience residual back pain (RBP) even after the fracture has healed. The incidence of RBP after OVCF treatment varies among studies, and there is a need for further research to understand the risk factors associated with RBP.
methodsA systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following the PRISMA guidelines. Electronic databases were searched, and relevant studies were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data extraction and quality assessment were performed independently by two authors. Statistical analysis included single-proportion meta-analyses and pooling of odds ratios (OR) using the inverse-variance method, to calculate the overall incidences of RBP and cement leakage and identify risk factors associated with RBP.
resultsA total of 19 studies were included in the analysis. The overall incidences of RBP and cement leakage were found to be 16% and 18%, respectively. Several risk factors were identified, including gender, bone mineral density, depression, baseline visual analog scale (VAS) score, intravertebral vacuum cleft, number of fractured segments, cement distribution, history of vertebral fracture, thoracolumbar fascial injury, and fracture non-union.
conclusionsThis study provides potential value within the scope of the incidence and risk factors of RBP following treatment of OVCFs. The identified risk factors can help clinicians identify high-risk patients and tailor appropriate interventions. Future research should focus on standardizing the definition of RBP and patient selection criteria to improve the accuracy of estimates and facilitate better management strategies for OVCF patients.
