Total hip/knee arthroplasty in the treatment of tumor-induced osteomalacia patients: More than 1 year follow-up.
Article in PloS one, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundTumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) may result in a better prognosis after complete resection of the causative neoplasm. However, tumors located proximal to the articular surface of the metaphysis remain largely uninvestigated.
methodsA retrospective study of sixteen patients was undertaken to evaluate treatment of tumors with joint arthroplasty and tumor resection. The bone metabolism index, hip/knee joint function, arthroplasty complications and symptoms were followed up for at least 12 months in each patient.
resultsAll patients presented with neoplasms situated in the articular surface of the metaphysis, with 13 cases undergoing hip arthroplasty and 3 undergoing knee arthroplasty. Treatment of the tumors with joint arthroplasty and tumor resection significantly and rapidly ameliorate bone metabolism indexes in patients with TIO (p<0.01), with no identified tumor recurrence. The joint function evaluation score was improved in 15 patients (93.75%). Complications in these patients included post-operative pain, joint squeaking and secondary hyperparathyroidism.
conclusionsJoint arthroplasty that includes tumor-expanding resection appears to be a safe and appropriate method for the treatment of TIO patients with a neoplasm located in the metaphysis proximal to the articular surface. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
