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

backgroundAs the most prevalent fragility fracture caused by osteoporosis, increasing attention was paid to vertebral compression fractures (VCF) day by day. Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) had unique advantages in treatment of VCF and was used widely. However, there were still part patients suffering from residual or unrelieved pain after the surgery. The purpose of our study was to identified the associated factors for good clinical outcomes and provide evidence for surgical strategy. MATERIAL AND

methods186 patients who underwent PVP from January 2021 to January 2023 were reviewed retrospectively in the study. The patients were divided into two groups according to clinical outcomes. Preoperative general data and surgical data were collected for statistical analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis and the receiver operating characteristic curve were used to identify the associated factors with good clinical outcomes.

resultsThere were statistically significant differences between two groups in volume of bone cement (p = 0.012), standardized treatment for osteoporosis (p = 0.004) and bone cement continuity (p = 0.006). The associated factors with good clinical outcomes after PVP were continuous bone cement (OR = 2.237, 95% CI = 1.191-4.201, p = 0.012), standardized treatment for osteoporosis (OR = 2.105, 95% CI = 1.089-4.068, p = 0.027) and volume of bone cement > 5.5 ml (OR = 1.271, 95% CI = 1.023-1.579, p = 0.030).

conclusionPVP effectively released the back pain of patients and was worthy of promotion. However, postoperative residual pain was an important factor that reduced the clinical outcomes. Continuous bone cement and standardized treatment for osteoporosis were guarantee of good clinical outcomes for PVP and injected bone cement > 5.5 ml might be a guarantee.
