The Use of a Rib Vascularized Bone Graft in Revision Vertebral Column Resection for a Complex Pediatric Spine Patient.

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
We report a case of a 9-year, 10-month-old female patient who ultimately required a revision vertebral column resection to manage a progressive congenital kyphoscoliosis complicated by postoperative surgical site infection, decubiti and implant exposure, proximal junctional kyphosis, and pseudarthrosis. Definitive surgery consisted of T4-L4 posterior spinal fusion and revision vertebral column resection with a pedicled rib vascular bone graft. At 3-year follow-up, the patient was fully recovered with return to full noncontact activities. The purpose of this case report is to describe the use of a rib vascular bone graft to increase the likelihood of arthrodesis for a complex pediatric spinal fusion patient with deficient posterior elements and multiple failed surgeries.
