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

objectiveEffects of first-stage Halo-pelvic traction (HPT) combined with second-stage surgery in patients with severe scoliosis and pulmonary insufficiency.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 100 patients with scoliosis and pulmonary insufficiency admitted to the Beijing Da Wang Road Emergency Rescue Hospital from January 2021 to October 2024. All patients underwent primary HPT traction treatment and secondary scoliosis correction surgery. Changes in imaging and lung function indicators of patients before traction, after the last traction follow-up, and after internal fixation surgery. Pearson's statistical correlation analysis was used to investigate the effect of the Cobb angle of the principal curvature on lung function indicators.

resultsThe lung function results of the included patients showed that restrictive ventilation function parameters increased to varying degrees (P < 0.05) before traction, during the last traction follow-up, and after the internal fixation surgery. Correlation analysis showed that as the Cobb angle of the main bend decreased, there was a significant negative correlation between lung restrictive ventilation function parameters (P < 0.05).

conclusionHPT traction can effectively correct severe scoliosis and improve respiratory function, making it a safe and effective adjunctive treatment.
