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: To evaluate the effectiveness of visualized reamer foraminoplasty in transforaminal endoscopic lumbar discectomy (TELD) for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 100 LDH patients who met the selection criteria and underwent TELD between January 2022 and June 2024. According to the foraminoplasty technique, patients were divided into a visualized group and a transforaminal endoscopic spine system (TESSYS) group, with 50 patients in each group. There were no significant differences in baseline data between the two groups ( Results: All surgeries were completed successfully, with primary healing of the incisions. The visualized group showed significantly shorter operation time and fewer fluoroscopy frequencies than the TESSYS group ( Conclusion: Both TESSYS and visualized reamer foraminoplasty techniques yield satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of LDH via TELD. The latter can significantly reduce intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency and operation time, but the effectiveness of the two groups is comparable.
