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

The most common types of cystic lesions around the hip joint are synovial or ganglion cysts. In rare cases, the cysts can compress adjacent structures and cause symptoms to arise. Obturator neuropathy secondary to a hip ganglion cyst is a rare phenomenon, with scarce reports on suggested treatment options. Hip arthroscopy is a potential minimally invasive treatment that has yet to be described in such cases. We present a 52-year-old male suffering from obturator neuropathy caused by an intra-pelvic ganglion cyst arising from the hip joint. Hip arthroscopy was performed for decompression of the cyst and dilation of the stalk opening. Six-month post-operative follow-up showed resolution of symptoms and complete elimination of the cyst on magnetic resonance imaging.
