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

Synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome and chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) have been described as disorders of chronic osteoarthritic inflammation frequently associated with skin manifestations, and SAPHO and CRMO (SAPHO/CRMO) are rare autoinflammatory disorders of unknown etiology. SAPHO tends to occur in adults and CRMO predominantly occurs in children and adolescents. SAPHO/CRMO can affect any skeletal region (e.g., anterior chest wall, spine, or long bones). As SAPHO/CRMO are diagnoses of exclusion, the diagnoses might be difficult if skin manifestations are not clearly evident. However, knowledge of the imaging findings of skeletal disorders is helpful for correcting the diagnosis and avoiding unnecessary invasive procedures, as well as in facilitating early diagnosis and adequate treatment. This pictorial review describes the appearance of increased skeletal uptake for SAPHO/CRMO on bone scintigraphy along with findings from radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
