Erdheim-Chester Disease: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Journal of clinical imaging science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare form of non-Langerhans' cell histiocytosis characterized by xanthogranulomatous infiltration of foamy histiocytes surrounded by fibrosis. ECD may be asymptomatic or present as a multi-systemic disease with life-threatening manifestations, most commonly involving the skeletal system. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrates cells that are CD68+, CD1a-, and S100- with an absence of Birbeck granules. We report a case of a 69-year old male patient who presented with neurological symptoms - eventually thought to be separate to his diagnosis of ECD. It represents the ability to diagnose ECD based just on radiological findings in an otherwise asymptomatic individual.
