Perioperative teriparatide in adult spinal deformity: a retrospective comparative cohort study.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Adults with low bone mineral density (BMD) face higher risks of implant loosening, pseudarthrosis, and junctional complications following long-segment spinal deformity reconstruction. Teriparatide (TPTD), an anabolic agent that enhances bone formation, may improve fixation strength and fusion quality. This study compared outcomes between patients with low BMD who received perioperative TPTD and those with normal BMD undergoing long-segment adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. Methods: In a retrospective comparative cohort study, 50 consecutive adults who underwent thoracolumbar fusion with pelvic fixation between June 2022 and January 2024 were included. Patients were classified into two cohorts: normal BMD ( Results: Baseline characteristics were similar, except for lower BMD in the TPTD group (mean T-score -1.7 vs 0.95, Conclusions: Perioperative TPTD in low-BMD patients demonstrated similar clinical, radiographic, and complication outcomes to those of patients with normal bone density undergoing long-segment ASD reconstruction. These results contribute to the role of structured bone-health optimization in ASD surgery but cannot be attributed to TPTD alone.
