Advances in Basivertebral Nerve Ablation for Chronic Low Back Pain: A Narrative Review.
Review in Journal of personalized medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Chronic low back pain has traditionally been thought to stem from intervertebral disc degeneration. However, emerging evidence over the last few decades has revealed other contributing sources. One such etiology of chronic non-radiating axial low back pain has been attributed to vertebral end plate disruption and degeneration, leading to basivertebral nerve-mediated nociception. These degenerative events, described as Modic changes on MRI, provide a means of diagnosis and offer personalized treatment options, like minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation, to help address this source of low back pain. This review focuses on recent advancements, rationale, efficacy, and safety profile intraosseous basivertebral nerve ablation in the treatment of vertebrogenic back pain, and discusses current knowledge gaps that may help guide future research in the field.
