[Bilateral bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the external ear canal : a rare case].
Article in HNO, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Osteonecrosis of the mandible is a well-known and dreaded complication after the administration of bisphosphonates. Only a few cases of bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the external ear canal have been described. Especially after long-lasting bisphosphonate therapy, for example in patients with multiple myeloma, an ulceration of the floor of the bony external auditory canal should be treated surgically and be distinguished from radioosteonecrosis, malignant external otitis, or carcinoma of the external ear.
