Basivertebral Nerve Ablation for Treatment of Lower Back Pain.
Review in Biomedicines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Lower back pain (LBP) is a widely prevalent global health issue, affecting over half a billion people and remaining the leading cause of years lived with disability (YLDs). LBP significantly impacts healthcare systems, with substantial costs related to surgical procedures and lost workdays. Vertebrogenic back pain (VBP), characterized by specific clinical symptoms and associated with Modic changes (MC) in vertebral endplates, best seen on MRI, is a significant subset of LBP. This paper explores the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and current reports and studies focusing on VBP and the role of basivertebral nerve (BVN) ablation as a therapeutic intervention. Multiple studies, including randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and meta-analyses, demonstrate the efficacy of BVN ablation in reducing pain and improving function in patients with chronic LBP associated with MC.
