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 endeavors to evaluate the clinical efficacy of unilateral biportal endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion (ULIF) in managing lumbar degenerative diseases (LDD) through a multi-center investigation. Methods: One hundred patients diagnosed with LDD between August 2022 and August 2024 were enrolled and allocated to either the ULIF cohort (ULIF group, Results: The ULIF group demonstrated a higher three-month interbody fusion rate than the PLIF group ( Conclusion: ULIF enhances postoperative pain relief, functional recovery, and inflammatory resolution, while simultaneously shortening operative and hospitalization durations, minimizing intraoperative blood loss, and maintaining a favorable safety profile in LDD patients.
