Utility of intraoperative ultrasound to treat ventral cord herniation 20 years post thoracic burst fracture.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: A 40-year-old male, two decades after a thoracic vertebrae burst injury, developed a delayed ventral cord herniation effectively repaired utilizing intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS). Case Description: A 40-year-old male presented with 6 months of progressive myelopathy attributed to a magnetic resonance imaging documented T7 ventral cord herniation through a ventral dural defect at the level of a 20-year-old thoracic burst injury. It was surgically repaired using IOUS. Conclusion: This case demonstrated IOUS's utility in not only localizing pathology but also confirming decompression of structures.
