1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Fibrous dysplasia of bone is a connatal but not hereditary disease with monostotic or polyostotic manifestations and may be associated either with the extraskeletal disease McCune-Albright syndrome or with myxoma of the skeletal muscle, termed Mazabraud syndrome.The confirmation of recurrent chromosomal aberrations may lead to the conclusion that fibrous dysplasia is a neoplasia rather than a dysplastic skeletal disease.The primary cause of all forms of the described diseases is the activating GNAS mutation, which is detectable in almost all lesions. Research into the impact of this mutation has increased the understanding of these up to now solely descriptively defined diseases and also allowed easier discrimination of various fibro-osseous skeletal lesions. Current insights suggest that this mutation may also play a pivotal role in other extraskeletal neoplasias.
