Bone Marrow Lesion: Image, Clinical Presentation, and Treatment.
Review in Magnetic resonance insights, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
In this article, the cause, histology, imaging characteristics, clinical presentation, and treatment of these lesions are thoroughly discussed. Bone marrow edema is the generic term classically used to describe the high-signal-intensity alterations detected on magnetic resonance fluid-sensitive sequences. The significance of bone marrow edema for the patient's clinical condition and the prognosis of the affected joint is being increasingly investigated and discussed, and situations characterized by subchondral insufficiency are receiving increasing attention. More recent studies found some important correlations between bone marrow lesions and patient's pain and osteoarthritis progression. Conservative treatment is based on anti-inflammatory and analgesic uses according to the patient's pain, combined with reduced load on the affected limb. Regarding surgical treatment, subchondroplasty is an option still in development, albeit with promising initial results.
