Efficacy of intervertebral release combined with asymmetric osteotomy in rigid degenerative scoliosis.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeThe aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of treating patients with rigid degenerative scoliosis by restoring intervertebral balance through a combination of interbody release and asymmetric grade 1 and 2 osteotomy.
methodThe medical collected clinical and radiographic data of patients with rigid degenerative scoliosis from our department between 2015 and 2022. A total of 60 patients were included in the study, comprising 20 males and 40 females, with an average follow-up period of 30.7 months. Data recorded included surgery duration, blood loss, number of fixed segments, hospital stay, complications, clinical scores, and radiographic parameters.
resultsThe sagittal vertical axis improved from 4.28 ± 1.48 cm preoperatively to 2.90 ± 1.18 cm postoperatively, while the coronal vertical axis improved from 3.29 ± 1.72 cm preoperatively to 1.12 ± 0.62 cm postoperatively. The preoperative coronal Cobb angle was 30.85 ± 7.33°, which improved to 4.14 ± 3.06°postoperatively. Additionally, lumbar lordosis increased from 24.50 ± 17.24°preoperatively to 30.35 ± 6.11°postoperatively. VAS scores for back pain and leg pain, ODI scores, and JOA scores showed varying degrees of improvement.
conclusionInterbody release combined with asymmetric Grade 1 and 2 osteotomy to restore intervertebral balance significantly improves spinal deformity and postoperative functional scores in patients with rigid degenerative scoliosis.
