The Prioritized Correction at Osteotomy Site: A Novel Technique for Preventing Sagittal Translation During 3-Column Osteotomies in Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery.

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
Objective: To compare perioperative and complication outcomes, focusing on the prevention of sagittal translation (ST), between a novel "prioritized correction with multiple-rod construct" (PC-MRC) technique and traditional multiple-rod constructs (M-RC) in adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients undergoing 3-column osteotomies (3-COs). Methods: In this retrospective study, 101 ASD patients with a minimum 2-year follow-up after 3-COs were divided into 2 groups: PC-MRC (n=65) and M-RC (n=36). The PC-MRC technique involved initial osteotomy closure with short rods followed by global alignment correction with long rods. Radiographic and clinical parameters were assessed preoperatively, postoperatively, and at final follow-up. Results: The PC-MRC group had significantly shorter operation time and lower estimated blood loss (p=0.045 and p=0.007, respectively). Major coronal and kyphotic deformity correction rates were similar between groups. No significant correction loss occurred at the final follow-up. Crucially, the incidence of ST was significantly lower in the PC-MRC group (1.5% vs. 25.0%, p<0.001). Correspondingly, the overall rate of neurological injury was lower in the PC-MRC group (7.7% vs. 22.2%, p=0.037). Conclusion: The PC-MRC technique offers a versatile and rigid fixation for 3-COs in ASD patients, facilitating significant correction of global deformity. This straightforward technique effectively prevents massive blood loss and ST caused by 3-COs, while minimizing the risk of neurological complication.
