Dynamic behavior of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc loading: a systematic review and meta-analysis exploring the concept of dynamic disc model.

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: The dynamic disc model (DDM) is a theoretical framework in spine mechanics that theorizes the behavior of the Methods: We screened seven databases (CENTRAL, Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, and HAL) up to July 2024, identifying studies through a PRISMA-guided approach that detailed the mechanical transformation (displacement and deformation) of the Results: From the 9,269 articles screened, 14 studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was employed in 92.8% of the studies, revealing four strategies for assessing Conclusion: Evidence for the dynamic disc model for intact discs is of low strength, whereas very limited evidence challenges the dynamic disc model for fissured discs. New multiparametric MRI studies may help guiding future clinical assessment protocols. Systematic Review Registration: CRD42022331774.
