Fibrogenesis Imperfecta Ossium.
Review in Calcified tissue international, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Fibrogenesis imperfecta ossium (FIO) is an extremely uncommon fatal bone disorder of poorly understood etiology. The pathogenesis of FIO is not well known. The fundamental skeletal defect appears to be an abnormality in organic matrix of bone characterized by defective mineralization of the abnormal collagen. FIO clinically manifests in middle-aged adults presenting with fracture and bone pain. Elevated serum alkaline phosphatase is the only and the most consistent biochemical abnormality. Although paraproteinemia is observed in one-third of cases, the pathogenic link to the disease process is unclear. Limited information on FIO and its close resemblance to many metabolic bone disorders leads to delayed or missed diagnoses and management. Prednisolone, bisphosphonates, melphalan and steroids have been tried previously with variable success. Recently, a trial of recombinant growth hormone therapy was found to be effective. Further research focused on the pathogenetic mechanisms of FIO is needed to identify and develop targeted therapeutic options.
