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

We report a case of hand soft tissue tumor-proliferative fasciitis (PF)-in a 12-year-old patient that presented as a painful lump causing trigger finger. After meticulous diagnostic workup, a surgical excision led to immediate amelioration of symptoms. PF is a rare benign pseudosarcomatous lesion arising typically in the subcutaneous tissue and fascia in adults. It is very uncommon in the hand. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a trigger finger being caused due to this pathology. In this report, the authors review PF lesions on hands, advice careful evaluation of magnetic resonance imaging features, and recommend surgical management.
