Percutaneous kyphoplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures performed in one-day surgery: safe and effective?

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: Evaluating the safety and efficacy of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) as an ambulatory surgery procedure, and analyzing causes of postoperative delayed discharge in day surgery settings. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 299 patients diagnosed with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) who required PKP surgery in our hospital's orthopedic department between January 2022 and December 2023. Among them, 157 underwent the day surgery procedure group (DSP), while 142 received the traditional inpatient group (TIP). The following parameters were recorded for both groups: gender, age, preoperative comorbidities, fracture location, preoperative bone density T-score, preoperative ASA classification, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, cement leakage, pulmonary embolism, bone cement toxicity, cement injection volume, puncture site hematoma, infection, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, 1-month postoperative refracture incidence, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores at preoperative, postoperative day 1, and 1-month postoperative timepoints, along with discharge satisfaction. Results: No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in age, gender, bone mineral density, fracture level distribution, ASA classification, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, cement leakage incidence, or cement injection volume ( Conclusions: PKP demonstrates safety and efficacy as an day surgery for OVCF, warranting widespread adoption. However, clinicians should note that suboptimal pain relief on postoperative day 1 may represent a primary factor contributing to delayed discharge in some patients.
