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
introductionSolitary infantile myofibromatosis (IM) of bone is a rare benign osseous tumor of childhood with low rate of recurrence. Well documented within the multicenter form, its solitary intraosseous location is less well described. CASE REPORT: We present a rare case of intraosseous myofibromatosis arising the iliac bone of a 11-year-old girl, who was operated at 2 months of life for a retroauricular subcutaneous MF with unbalanced translocation t(9;16). She presented with a limping associated to a stiffness of the hip without pain. Imaging disclosed a 4×4×1cm intraosseous, lytic and heterogeneous mass with a soft tissue component on the medial cortical of the left iliac bone. Open biopsy was performed. Histology revealed proliferation of fusiform cells with eosinophil cytoplasm embedded in a myxoid and fibrous stroma without mitotic figures. On immunohistochemistry, cells were positive for actin, PS100, KL1, focally positive for EMA, CD34, P63, rarely CD31, which indicated diagnosis of new localization of IM. Cytogenetic analysis revealed absence of translocation t(9;16), which was found in the first tumor. Subsequent total resection was performed. The patient recovered normal function without recurrence of tumor at 3 years follow-up.
conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first case of solitary IM of the iliac bone, occurring 12 years after the first localization. Total resection resulted in excellent outcome. However recurrence can happen even long time after the first resection and new localization is possible, as in our case. This suggests close follow-up and clear information about the risk of recurrence.
