MRI Findings of Extradural Fat in Patients with Cauda Equina Syndrome: A Novel Perspective.
Article in Indian journal of orthopaedics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objective: To explore the manifestations of extradural fat in patients with Redundant nerve roots (RNRs) via lumbar MRI. Methods: A total of 492 patients with RNRs were enrolled and divided into two groups: Group A ( Results: In Group A, there was no statistically significant difference in the LSFTT among the different grades of extradural fat. In Group B, the incidence rates of Grade 2 and Grade 3 extradural fat were 66.7% and 24.2%, respectively, which were significantly greater than the 27.3% and 0% reported in Group C, with a statistically significant difference between Groups B and C ( Conclusion: MRI is an important tool for assessing extradural fat and RNRs, providing crucial information for clinical decision-making and improving patients' prognoses. Increased extradural fat may contribute to the development of RNRs and should be a concern for clinicians.
