A Case of Sacral Osteomyelitis Causing Ascending Spinal Canal Infection.
Article in Cureus, 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
Sacral osteomyelitis is an infection of the bone that extends posterior to the pelvis at the base of the spine. This condition typically occurs in elderly or bedbound/immobile patients and is treated with wound debridement, wound care, surgery, and antibiotic therapy. In this report, a case is presented of a rare complication of sacral osteomyelitis where the infection extended through the bone into the spinal canal causing an ascending spinal canal infection. This report is meant to provide an individual example of this rare complication which can hopefully be used to improve surveillance, treatment, and outcomes of this rare condition.
