Comparison of the efficacy of one-hole split endoscopy and unilateral biportal endoscopy in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation.

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: The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of one-hole split endoscopy (OSE) and unilateral biportal endoscopy (UBE) in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: Retrospective analysis of 101 LDH patients who underwent UBE or OSE surgery in our hospital from January 2022 to January 2024. Among them, 53 cases received UBE treatment, while the remaining patients received OSE treatment. Evaluate patient outcomes, including changes in Hb and Hct levels, incision length, total blood loss (TBL), surgical duration, hospital stay, complications, visual analog scale (VAS) for back and leg pain, Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and efficacy evaluated using modified MacNab criteria. Results: After surgery, Hb and Hct levels decreased in both groups; however, the absolute postoperative Hb and Hct levels were significantly higher in the OSE group than in the UBE group ( Conclusions: Compared with UBE, OSE has comparable clinical efficacy in treating LDH. Clinical doctors can make reasonable choices based on the specific situation of patients.
