Intraoperative 3D Navigation-Guided Resection of Enlarged Transverse Process for Treating Bertolotti Syndrome Unresponsive to Noninvasive Treatments: Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Bertolotti syndrome is a lumbosacral anomaly that induces persistent lumbar pain. This case describes 3D navigation-guided resection of an enlarged transverse process. Sufficient decompression provided pain relief refractory to noninvasive treatments. ODI and SF-36 scales validated clinical efficacy, reflecting profound enhancement in the patient's functional and health-related quality of life.
