An Unusual Presentation of an Osteoid Osteoma in the Lunate Bone.

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
An osteoid osteoma is a rare benign tumor of the carpal bones. It is extremely rarely found in the lunate bone in patients above 30 years of age. We present a case report of a 61-year-old man with an osteoid osteoma of the left wrist, which was masked by degenerative carpal bone disease and a comorbidity of an inflammatory bowel disease. The mainstay of imaging including plain radiographs, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and bone scintigraphy led to the clinical diagnosis of a lunatomalacia. The tumor was removed by coincidence during removal of the diseased lunate bone. Postoperatively, the patient was immediately free of pain and remained free at his 3 months postoperative follow-up.
