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

Objective: This study compared the outcomes of short-segment Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 67 patients grouped into SSF (n=24), LSF (n=22), and corpectomy (n=21). Clinical and radiological parameters were assessed, including pre- and postoperative hemoglobin, numeric rating scale scores, American Spinal Injury Association scale grades, anterior vertebral body height (AVBH), spinal canal encroachment, Cobb angle, local kyphotic angle, operative time, and blood loss. Results: Preoperatively, the corpectomy group demonstrated significantly lower AVBH (49.7%) and greater spinal canal encroachment (64.9%) compared with the SSF (62.6% and 39.9%) and LSF (58.4% and 43.0%) groups ( Conclusion: Severe preoperative AVBH loss (≤54.93%) and spinal canal encroachment (≥54.39%) may serve as practical thresholds for selecting corpectomy to achieve adequate decompression. In contrast, when these parameters are within acceptable ranges, SSF may be preferred in younger patients as it is less invasive, requires shorter operative time, and provides outcomes comparable to LSF.
