Multidetector CT findings of calvarial eosinophilic granuloma.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) is a well-recognised benign form of Langerhans-cell histiocytosis. The estimated incidence of EG is 3-4 per million of the population. More patients are children and adolescents between the ages of 1 and 15 years. The value of plain films in the diagnosis of the EG is limited and the extent of the disease is better defined by multidetector CT (MDCT) scanning. MDCT scan with multiplanar and three-dimensional reconstruction image of the skull and brain clearly demonstrates bone destruction and soft-tissue involvement of the tumour. In this article we present the MDCT imaging characteristics of EG of the skull and discuss the differential diagnosis of this rare lesion with reference to recent literatures.
