Extraskeltal Outgrowth of Solitary Synovial Osteochondroma of the Cervical Spine: A Case Report.
Article in NMC case report journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We report a rare case of a solitary synovial osteochondroma (SSO) in the cervical canal. A 37-year-old man presented with neck pain and the forearm dysesthesia developed immediately after a trivial motor accident. Because of aggravation he visited our hospital though he was treated conservatively for 3 months. A computed tomography (CT) scan showed an oval shaped small mass with high density rim in the cervical canal at the level of the C6/7 facet joint. This mass compressing the dural sac was visualized with a high intensity signal in T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and, interestingly, with high intensity in T1-weighted images. A surgical removal was carried out. Macroscopically, it consists of a solitary, firm, juxta-articular mass associated with synobia but lacking connection with the adjacent bone. Microscopically, it is similar to conventional osteochondromas. It differs from this entity by not arising from a bone surface and by a whole coverage of synobial tissue. The final diagnosis was a SSO. There have been anecdotal case reports of a SSO in various site including knee, fingers, buttocks, wrist, and so on. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of SSO arising in the spinal canal.
