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

Introduction: Total disc replacement (TDR) using Mobi-C Methods: Data from the nationwide registry covering postoperative 2-year surveillance were analyzed for single-level TDR performed during the post-marketing surveillance period in Japan. The database included patient characteristics, surgical details, complications, and reoperations. Complication and reoperation rates were analyzed for the perioperative period during hospitalization and the postoperative period after discharge. Results: In total, 332 patients were enrolled in this study, and 271 patients completed the 2-year follow-up (81.6%). Mobi-C Conclusions: The overall complication and reoperation rates of TDR were relatively low: 1.5% and 1.1% in the perioperative period during hospitalization and 7.4% and 1.1% within the 2-year postoperative period after discharge, respectively. TDR achieved favorable outcomes with acceptable complication rates when performed under appropriate surgical indications.
