Hylan G-F 20 single-injection formulation.
Trial report in Drugs & aging, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Hylan G-F 20, a cross-linked hyaluronic acid derivative, is an elastoviscous, high-molecular-weight (average 6000 kDa) fluid with rheological properties similar to those of knee synovial fluid of healthy young individuals. In a 26-week, randomized, double-blind, multicentre study in patients with symptomatic primary osteoarthritis of the knee (n = 253), one intra-articular injection of hylan G-F 20 (single-injection formulation) into the target knee significantly relieved pain (as measured by the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index pain [WOMAC A] subscale), including pain while walking on a flat surface (as assessed by the WOMAC A1 subscore), compared with placebo. Observer-reported disease status and patient-reported health status were also significantly improved in hylan G-F 20-treated patients compared with placebo-treated patients. A single intra-articular injection of hylan G-F 20 was generally well tolerated, with an adverse event profile similar to that of placebo. Repeat administration of hylan G-F 20 after 6 months had a similar tolerability profile to that of the initial injection. However, no patient who developed a target-knee adverse event after their first injection experienced such an event following their second injection.
