Review in British journal of clinical pharmacology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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 (FD) is a genetic, noninheritable rare bone disease caused by a postzygotic activating mutation of the α subunit of the stimulatory G-protein causing increased abnormal bone formation leading to pain, deformity and fractures. To date, no cure has been identified for FD/McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) and treatment is symptomatic and aimed at decreasing pain and/or local bone turnover. Various drugs have been used to achieve clinical improvement in FD/MAS patients including bisphosphonates and denosumab, however further translational studies are also warranted to address unresolved pathophysiological issues and explore novel pharmacological targets for the management of FD/MAS. In this article, we review literature on the medical treatment of FD/MAS, discuss the unresolved pathophysiological issues and explore novel pharmacological targets for the management of FD/MAS.
