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

backgroundCERAMENT™|BONE VOID FILLER is an injectable and moldable ceramic bone substitute material intended for bone voids. The material consists of hydroxyapatite and calcium sulfate hemihydrate. The aim of this study is to present the first long-term results following open curettage of benign bone tumors and tumor-like lesions and void filling with this novel injectable and synthetic bone graft.

methodsThirty three patients were enrolled into the study between June 2013 and October 2014 .Totally, we treated 24 women and 9 men with a median age of 47 years (range: 22-74). All patients suffered from primary musculoskeletal system disorders (enchondroma 63,6%, giant cell tumor 18%, aneurysmal bone cyst 9%, fibrous dysplasia 9%, Gaucher disease 3%). We performed curettage of pathological lesions, then the bone substitute was administered by means of needle to the void.

resultsThe average follow-up was 13 months (range: 2-13 months, median 10 months). No metastasis or recurrence had been detected. We received significant clinical improvement relating to VAS, MSTS, and oncological results.

conclusionsThe results of our study report that CERAMENT can be successfully used as a bone substitute in patients with various bone diseases, as well as benign bone tumors. CERAMENT can provide an effective and long-term solution for reconstructive procedures following curettage of bone tumors and tumor like lesions.
