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

ObjectiveThis study investigated the efficacy of a combined technique involving percutaneous pedicle screw fixation and percutaneous kyphoplasty in treating osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures with endplate depression.MethodsA prospective cohort of 120 patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures with endplate depression was classified into Group A (n = 58, percutaneous pedicle screw fixation + percutaneous kyphoplasty) and Group B (n = 62, percutaneous kyphoplasty). Radiographic parameters, visual analog scale score, and Oswestry Disability Index were systematically compared between the two groups postoperatively.ResultsGroup A demonstrated significantly better Cobb angle correction than Group B
