1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundIndirect decompression is one of the potential benefits of anterior reconstruction in patients with spinal stenosis. On the other hand, the reported rate of revision surgery after indirect decompression highlights the necessity of working out prediction models for the radiographic results of indirect decompression with assessing their clinical relevance.

aimTo assess factors that influence radiographic and clinical results of the indirect decompression in patients with stenosis of the lumbar spine.

methodsThis study is a single-center cross-sectional evaluation of 80 consecutive patients (17 males and 63 females) with lumbar spinal stenosis combined with the instability of the lumbar spinal segment. Patients underwent single level or bisegmental spinal instrumentation employing oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation. Radiographic results of the indirect decompression were assessed using computerized tomography, while MacNab scale was used to assess clinical results.

resultsAfter indirect decompression employing anterior reconstruction using OLIF, the statistically significant increase in the disc space height, vertebral canal square, right and left lateral canal depth were detected (

conclusionIndirect decompression employing anterior reconstruction is achieved by the increase in disc height along the posterior boarder and reduction of the slipped vertebrae in patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis. Vertebral canal square below 80 mm
