The First Clinical Case of Gorham-Stout Syndrome of Humerus in an 18-year-old Female Reported in Pakistan.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Gorham-Stout syndrome (GSS) is a rare disorder of complete bone resorption, characterized by lymphangiomatosis and angiomatosis of bone, with only around 200 cases reported from around the world till date. The diagnosis is made on clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings and exclusion of other common conditions, and treatment is based on the physician's judgment and tailored to the needs of the individual. With the etiology unknown, diagnosis mostly of exclusion, an unpredictable prognosis, and no standardized treatment formed, the disease poses a challenge to physicians in appropriately diagnosing and managing the patient. Herein, we present a case of an otherwise healthy 18-year-old female diagnosed with GSS of humerus following a fracture to her left arm. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of the disorder from Pakistan.
