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

Currently, there is little in the medical literature on subperiosteal hematomas in neurofibromatosis patients, particularly in those who have subperiosteal neurofibromas. Initial imaging and clinical presentation can be very worrisome and to the unaware may lead to early surgical intervention and/or anxiety in the patient and parents. This report presents the case of a 9-year-old child with neurofibromatosis type-1 and progressively increasing calf pain and swelling about a known plexiform neurofibroma. Imaging at initial presentation and at 1 month demonstrated evolving subperiosteal hemorrhage. This report adds to the small body of literature on subperiosteal hemorrhage as a complication of neurofibromatosis. Additionally, this report demonstrates an approach to noninvasive management of these lesions with the utility of initial and 1 month follow-up radiographs helpful in demonstrating hemorrhage evolution and possibly negating the need for biopsy.
