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
purposeThe present study aimed to analyze the preoperative degeneration of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) and its involvement in postoperative pelvic incidence (PI) change.
methodsData from consecutive patients who underwent corrective surgery for adult spinal deformity (ASD) were included in this study. Pre- and early postoperative full-standing radiographs and preoperative pelvic computed tomography (CT) images were examined. Spinopelvic parameters were measured from full-standing radiographs, whereas SIJ degeneration was evaluated from pelvic CT images. We then compared preoperative and postoperative spinopelvic parameters, focusing on PI change, and investigated whether spinopelvic parameters and SIJ degeneration affected PI change.
resultsData from 122 patients (mean age, 71.8 years) were analyzed, with the mean number of fixed vertebrae being 10.2. Postoperative PI decreased significantly by 3.2° (from 50.8° to 47.6°; P < 0.0001). After confirming the presence of SIJ degeneration based on preoperative CT, we found that 39, 38, 49, 98, and 54 patients had osteophytes, sclerosis, bridging bone, articular gas, and SIJ subluxation, respectively. No significant association was observed between sclerosis, osteophyte formation, bony bridging, or articular gas and postoperative PI change, although a significantly greater decrease in postoperative PI was observed among those with SIJ subluxation (P = 0.0035). PI change only correlated with preoperative PI (P < 0.001, R = - 0.56).
conclusionPI decreased significantly after ASD surgery. We found that several patients showed SIJ subluxation before ASD surgery. PI change after ASD surgery was significantly associated with preoperative PI value and SIJ subluxation.
