Analysis of therapeutic effects of congenital kyphosis in children due to anterior vertebral bone bridges.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: To investigate the choice of treatment options and long-term orthopedic results of congenital kyphosis in children due to anterior vertebral bone bridges. Methods: The clinical data of children with congenital kyphosis due to anterior vertebral bridges treated at our center from May 2005 to May 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. We evaluated the clinical features of the deformity, the choice of treatment plan, the change in the Cobb angle of the kyphosis and the improvement of the sagittal trunk deviation before and after treatment and at the final follow-up visit by means of pre-treatment and post-treatment imaging, physical examination and analysis of the case data. Results: A total of 35 children were included. Clinical follow-up was conducted on a cohort of 5 children, all of whom presented with type Ⅱ congenital kyphosis caused by less than three thoracic anterior bone bridges. The study findings revealed no noteworthy advancement in segmental kyphosis, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis, and sagittal vertical axis during the final follow-up assessment ( Conclusion: Type Ⅱ congenital kyphosis in children caused by anterior bony bridges of less than three vertebrae in the thoracic segment can be followed up for a long period, and type Ⅱ/Ⅲ congenital kyphosis caused by anterior bony bridges of the vertebrae in the thoracolumbar, lumbar, and lumbosacral segments requires early surgery.
