The application of x-ray, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging on 22 pediatric Langerhans cell histiocytosis patients with long bone involvement: A retrospective analysis.
Observational study in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The studies focusing on x-ray, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in pediatric Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) patients were still rare. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the application of x-ray, CT, and MRI in pediatric LCH patients with long bone involvement.Total 22 pediatric LCH patients were included in this study. The diagnosis of LCH was confirmed by pathological examination. All patients were followed up for 3 years. X-ray, CT, or MRI was performed and the results were recorded for further analyses.Among 22 pediatric patients, x-ray (n = 20), CT (n = 18), or MRI (n = 12) were used to scan the lesion on long bones affected by LCH. Femurs (n = 13, 38.24%), tibia (n = 11, 32.35%), humerus (n = 5, 14.71%), and radius (n = 4, 11.76%) were the most frequently affected anatomic sites. Ovoid or round radiolucent lesions, aggressive periosteal reaction, and swelling of surrounding soft tissues were characteristic image of long bones on x-ray, CT, and MRI in pediatric LCH.Femurs, tibia, humerus, and radius were the most commonly affected long bones of pediatric LCH. The application of x-ray, CT, and MRI on long bones could help with the diagnosis of pediatric LCH.
