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
Background: Posteroanterior radiographs of patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) show bilateral differences in the iliac wings. This is due to pelvic axis rotation (PAR) associated with scoliosis. We often encounter cases wherein the PAR changes with surgery and postoperatively. We investigated the course of preoperative PAR and the relationship between PAR and shoulder balance in patients with Lenke 1,2 AIS. Methods: In total, 28 patients with Lenke 1,2 AIS undergoing scoliosis correction were included. The PAR and shoulder parameters were measured on posteroanterior radiographs. The correlation between the measured parameters and the extent of changes in each parameter was also examined. Results: Eleven patients (39.3 %) underwent preoperative PAR. Six patients (21.4 %) showed a greater change in PAR from 1 week to 2 years postoperatively. The rotation did not change significantly from preoperatively to immediately postoperatively but changed during the first three months postoperatively. The rotation group had significantly more balanced shoulders at 2 years (P = 0.025). The rotation group had a greater change in shoulder balance in the postoperative course significantly (P < 0.05). The extent of change in pelvic rotation from 1 week to 2 years postoperatively correlated with the extent of change in shoulder balance. Conclusion: The PAR in patients with Lenke 1,2 AIS significantly changed during 3 months postoperatively. Patients with Lenke 1,2 AIS with preoperative PAR can be expected to have postoperative shoulder rebalancing.
