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

objectiveTo investigate the occurrence and risk factors for low back pain post-percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) patients.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted of 148 OVCF patients treated from March 2020 to 2023. The incidence of low back pain post-PVP was recorded, and logistic regression analysis was used to identify associated risk factors.

resultsLow back pain occurred in 34 out of 148 patients (22.97%). Logistic regression identified age (>75) (P=0.039), number of fractured vertebrae (≥2) (P=0.004), presence of lumbar spine comorbidity (P=0.019), emotional status (P=0.006), site of fracture (P=0.006), and preoperative fascial injury (P=0.039) as independent risk factors influencing the development of low back pain after PVP in OVCF patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that age (>75), number of fractured vertebrae (≥2), lumbar spine comorbidities, and site of fracture had area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.626, 0.614, 0.623, and 0.667, respectively, in predicting low back pain post-PVP.

conclusionAge, number of fractured vertebrae, presence of lumbar spine comorbidities, emotional status, site of fracture, and preoperative fascial injury are significant independent risk factors for the occurrence of low back pain after PVP in patients with OVCF. These findings are crucial for alleviating postoperative low back pain and provide valuable insight for postoperative pain management.
