Tailored sacroplasty for sacral fracture secondary to an epileptic seizure.

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: Sacral fractures causing neurological deficits secondary to epileptic seizures are very rare. They are traditionally treated by laminectomy and sacral fixation. However, minimally invasive techniques such as sacroplasty offer more limited surgery with decreased morbidity. Here, a 23-year-old male with a seizure-induced sacral fracture was successfully treated with a decompressive laminectomy and transcorporal sacroplasty. Methods: After a grand-mal seizure, a 23-year-old male presented with severe paraparesis accompanied by bilateral S1/S2 radiculopathy and urinary/fecal incontinence (Gibbons grade 4). When studies documented a Roy-Camille type 2 sacral fracture with severe central compression of the S1/S2 spinal canal, he underwent an S1-S2 laminectomy with transcorporal sacroplasty. Results: On the 1 Conclusion: A 23-year-old male with a seizure-induced sacral fracture was successfully treated with a decompressive S1/S2 laminectomy/transcorporal sacroplasty.
