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

Single-position lateral decubitus lumbar interbody fusion has been shown to be an effective alternative to the classic two-stage approach. The application of 3D navigation can facilitate single-position surgery with the benefit of significantly reducing radiation exposure. In this operative video, use of 3D navigation for lateral percutaneous screw placement is highlighted, followed by key steps in leveraging navigation for the lateral lumbar interbody fusion. Nuances in the use of 3D navigation for the lateral portion of the surgery are emphasized for challenging cases with disc space collapse and lateral osteophytes.
