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

Bone marrow edema secondary to chronic pain syndrome after knee trauma is a disabling condition that presents with localized pain, allodynia, edema, decreased range of motion and osteopenia. The management includes a variety of medications and rehabilitation. The treatment of refractory diseases is challenging for most physicians. We present two cases of refractory bone edema secondary to complex regional pain syndrome that were successfully treated with a short-term regimen of teriparatide (TPT), a biosynthetic analogue (PTH 1-34) of the human parathormone. The rapid and sustained pain reduction with recovery of knee function for two years following administration of TPT demonstrated its potential for the treatment of bone edema due to complex regional pain syndrome.
