Evolution of the imaging features of osteoid osteoma treated with RFA or MRgFUS during a long-term follow-up: a pictorial review with clinical correlations.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Interventional radiology is today considered the first-line treatment for osteoid osteoma both in the form of needle-guided technique of ablation (Radiofrequency) and of needleless technique (magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound surgery). The follow-up study of the procedures is mainly clinical, since the disappearance of pain is consistent with the success of the procedure. However, due to the minimally invasive and innovative nature of the approach, interpretation of the follow-up imaging could be ambiguous and misleading. Aim of our review was to define the main findings on the imaging that can best describe the regular evolution of these types of treatment. In particular, four findings were considered: (1) bone marrow oedema; (2) reactive phenomena (perilesional inflammatory reaction for extra-articular lesions or synovial reaction for intra-articular lesions); (3) bone remodelling (disappearance of the nidus and bone healing); (4) ring sign (considered as the granulation tissue around the nidus treated). These findings were evaluated using MRI and CT with a follow-up study that lasted up to 24 months.
