[Diagnostics and treatment of osteoid osteoma].
Review in Der Orthopade, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundOsteoid osteoma is the third most common benign bone tumor and typically induces pain that is worse at night.
objectiveTo identify the epidemiological, pathogenetic, histological and radiological characteristics of osteoid osteoma and to present the broad variety of treatment options. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis review article summarizes relevant clinical studies and meta-analyses on this topic.
resultsOsteoid osteoma is characterized by a central nidus smaller than 1.5 cm in diameter with surrounding bone sclerosis. In the majority of cases, the tumor occurs in the long bones of the lower extremities and is predominantly manifested in patients aged between 5 and 25 years. Pain is mediated by prostaglandins, which stimulate afferent peripheral nerve fibers. Besides plain radiographs, thin-section computed tomography represents the gold standard of diagnostics but should be complemented by magnetic resonance or nuclear medicine imaging modalities. The conservative treatment consists of long-term therapy with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation of the nidus is the current operative treatment of choice.
conclusionSuccess rates of radiofrequency ablation and other minimally invasive procedures are high while treatment costs and length of hospital stay are low. Thus, open surgical curettage is reserved for rare indications and en bloc excision of the nidus should only be performed in cases of recurrent lesions.
