CT-guided joint cavity release for postpartum sacroiliac joint pain management: an evaluation of its efficacy, safety, and clinical outcomes.

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: The central aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Computed Tomography (CT)-guided joint cavity release in treating patients suffering from postpartum sacroiliac joint pain. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a sample of 37 patients who presented with postpartum sacroiliac joint pain and underwent CT-guided sacroiliac joint release treatment at The Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College. General clinical attributes of the patients were recorded, and the intensity of their pain before and after the operation was compared using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS). The effectiveness of the surgical treatment was assessed using the Modified MacNab criteria. The functional status of the sacroiliac joint at 3-and 6-month intervals post-operation was examined, and any complications related to surgery were documented. Results: The follow-up period was completed by all patients, with the successful implementation of CT-guided unilateral/bilateral sacroiliac joint release undertaken in 37 patients. Patient reported pain, as measured by the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NRS), was considerably reduced postoperatively with scores showing significant decrement from 7.14 ± 1.23 preoperatively to 1.26 ± 0.53 at 1 week, 1.86 ± 0.62 at 1 month, 1.92 ± 0.48 at 3 months, and 1.97 ± 0.61 at 6 months postoperatively, respectively ( Conclusion: Evidently, CT-guided joint cavity release presents as an effective therapeutic approach for the management of postpartum sacroiliac joint pain, enhancing quality of life and preserving patient safety.
