Incidence and risk factors of new-onset sacroiliac joint pain after spinal surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
Purpose: A systematic review and meta-analysis for incidence and risk factors of new-onset sacroiliac joint pain (SIJP) after spinal surgery aimed to provide evidence-based medical references for its early prevention, timely intervention, and appropriate treatment. Methodology: The protocol of the systematic review and meta-analysis was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Review (PROSPERO) with the PROSPERO ID (CRD42023463177). Relevant studies were searched to January 2024 from the databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, and the types of studies were cohort studies, case-control studies, and cross-sectional studies. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the Cross-Sectional/Prevalence Study Quality recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Two authors conducted studies search, data extraction, and quality assessment independently. Meta-analyses were done using Stata 14.0 software. Results: Twelve observational studies with 3,570 spinal surgery patients were included. Ten were case-control studies, one was a cross-sectional study, and another was a cohort study, all of which were of moderate quality and above. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the incidence of new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery was 9.40%; females, no. of surgical segments, fusion to the sacrum, and postoperative pelvic tilt (PT) were significantly associated with the new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery. Meta-analyses for preoperative and postoperative controls of spondylopelvic parameters showed that postoperative lumbar lordosis (LL) in the SIJP group and postoperative LL and sacral slope (SS) of patients in the NoSIJP group had significant differences from preoperative. Conclusion: Available evidence suggests that an increased risk of new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery is associated with sex, multi-segmental surgery, fusion to the sacrum, and greater postoperative PT.
