Triple Procedure for Direct Pars Repair: An Innovative, Non-fusion Approach for Managing Spondylolysis in Late Adolescence or Early Adulthood.

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
Introduction: Pars repair can be a useful non-fusion technique to treat young patients presenting with symptomatic lumbar spondylolysis. We hereby describe an innovative technique (triple procedure) to effectuate healing of pars defect in a symptomatic 19-year-old. Case Report: A 19-year-old male patient presented with persistent mechanical low back pain, which was recalcitrant to conservative measures. We treated him surgically with the triple procedure involving bilateral intralaminar screws, autogenous iliac crest bone graft, and temporary intersegmental fixation with unilateral pedicle screw-rod construct. He recovered well symptomatology after the procedure, and the lytic pars defect healed satisfactorily (final follow-up at 2 years). Conclusion: The combination of bilateral intralaminar fixation, unilateral intersegmental pedicle screw fixation and bone graft application can offer excellent clinical benefit in relatively older patients with spina bifida occulta.
