Treatment of posttraumatic thoracolumbar fractures using SpineJack for vertebral body augmentation, a single-center retrospective, and observational cohort study of 226 cases.

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
Context: Thoracolumbar spine fractures are frequent and the treatments are debatable because of the lack of randomized control studies and of low number of patient series. Percutaneous Vertebral Body Augmentation using SpineJack prosthesis (SJPVBA) followed by bracing is an available mini-invasive technique. The aim of the study was to assess the imaging and functional results of the largest homogeneous cohort of SJPVBA. Materials and Methods: Every patient who sustained a posttraumatic thoracolumbar vertebral fractures treated by SJPVBA from the January 6, 2012, to January 6, 2020, was retrosepctively included. The main outcome measure was the height of the vertebral body (anterior/middle/posterior parts) on the sagittal computed tomography scan. The secondary outcome measures were a 11-point Likert scale for the pain and the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire for the quality of life. All the data were compared at different times: preoperative versus day after the procedure versus at least 3 months versus (if disposable) a long-term special consultation just before the publication. Results: SPJVBA is a simple, quick (52-min-long on average) reliable, efficacious method to significantly improve the vertebral height (+3.5 mm and 4.3 mm of the anterior and middle vertebral heights, Conclusions: SPJVBA is a simple, quick, reliable, efficacious method to improve the vertebral height, to correct kyphosis and relieve pain.
