1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSpinal stenosis refers to the narrowing of the spinal canal which can generate clinical symptoms secondary to the spinal cord injury itself, or even root involvement. The traditional open surgical procedure to correct spinal stenosis is highly traumatic and risky, and with the development of surgical techniques, endoscopic procedures have been widely used in treating said stenosis, achieving good results with minimally invasive management.

aimTo conduct a literature review regarding endoscopic techniques for correcting spinal stenosis.

methodThis is an integrative literature review that surveyed the PUBMED database using the following search strategy: spinal[title] AND stenosis[title] AND surgery[title]. Only randomized clinical trials published in the last 10 years were included in the sample.

resultsA total of 13 articles were identified that met the previously established search strategy, all of which were included in the review.

conclusionThe reviewed studies showed that endoscopic surgery to correct spinal stenosis could offer adequate decompression of neural elements, resulting in shorter hospital stays, faster recovery and favorable operative results.
