Intraneural hemangioma in Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome: role of musculo-skeletal ultrasound in diagnosis-case report and review of the literature.
Review in Journal of ultrasound, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital disorder with an incidence of 1 in 100,000. It is characterized by a triad of capillary malformations (hemangiomas) or port-wine stains, venous varicosities, and bony- or soft-tissue hypertrophy. The capillary malformation is usually confined to a single extremity, usually a lower limb. The disease can lead to various morbidities, such as bleeding, deep vein thrombosis, venous ulcers, and embolic complications. We report a case of an 11-year-old girl who presented with the three classical symptoms of KTS, with port-wine stains in the left leg, an enlarged and elongated left leg, and soft-tissue hypertrophy and multiple venous varicosities in the left tibia. A subcutaneous hemangioma along with intramuscular hemangiomas in the leg muscles was noted with increased adipose tissue. The rare finding of an intraneural hemangioma of the distal posterior tibial nerve was also diagnosed. Ultrasound of the lower limb was the main tool in making the diagnosis of KTS. X-Ray and MRI were ancillary imaging modalities. This article describes the case study of the child and the findings of a detailed ultrasound examination.
