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

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor, occurring mainly in children and adolescents, and the limbs are the main affected sites. At present, limb-salvage treatment is considered as an effective basic standard treatment for osteosarcoma of the limb. China has a vast territory, but the development of technology is not balanced,which requires sufficient theoretical coverage, strong technical guidance and the application of limb-salvage treatment guidelines to the treatment of osteosarcoma. Therefore, to standardize and promote the development of limb-salvage surgery technology and improve the success rate of limb-salvage treatment, this guide systematically introduces limb-salvage techniques for the treatment of patients with limb osteosarcoma through definition of limb-salvage treatment, surgical methods, efficacy evaluation, postoperative treatment and prevention of complications, rehabilitation guidance, and follow-up advice.
