Surgical treatment of spinal tuberculosis: an updated review.
Review in European journal of medical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Tuberculosis (TB) is a worldwide disease which seriously affects the global public health. Spinal TB is the most common extra-pulmonary TB and may cause vertebral bone destruction, collapse, kyphosis and even paralysis. Anti-TB chemotherapy is considered the cornerstone treatment of spinal TB and surgery is often required for patients with severe kyphosis, impaired neurological function or spinal instability. Debridement of TB lesions, bone grafting and internal fixation are the key procedures of spinal TB surgery. However, the selection of surgical approach, the extent of TB lesion debridement, the choice of bone graft materials, and the method and extent of internal fixation are all remain controversy. The aim of this updated review is to evaluate current literature for advances in management of spinal TB, with particular focus on surgical techniques.
