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
Abnormal spine biomechanics are associated with various orthopedic disorders. Identifying key biomechanical factors predictive of spinal abnormalities can improve diagnosis and treatment. This study aimed to determine whether specific pelvic biomechanical parameters are significant predictors of spinal abnormalities. We hypothesized that patients with abnormal spine conditions exhibit distinct pelvic measurements compared to those with normal spine conditions. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1,181 patient records from January to March 2024, focusing on pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), lumbar lordosis (LL), sacral slope (SS), pelvic radius (PR), and spondylolisthesis. Data were collected from a centralized orthopedic patient database, which integrates de-identified records from the author's institution and affiliated facilities under the Ministry of Health. This ensured a standardized approach to data entry, with regular audits to maintain accuracy and reliability. Patients' spine conditions were classified as normal or abnormal based on imaging and clinical examinations. Descriptive statistics summarized the data, and comparative analyses were performed to differentiate between normal and abnormal groups. Decision trees and logistic regression were used to identify significant predictors of spinal abnormalities. Model validation was performed using ROC analysis and 10-fold cross-validation. Preliminary analysis found significant differences between normal and abnormal groups for various factors. Logistic regression identified pelvic incidence, lumbar lordosis, sacral slope, and pelvic radius as significant predictors (
