Systemic mastocytosis revisited with an emphasis on skeletal manifestations.
Review in La Radiologia medica, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a rare form of mastocytosis that can affect various organ systems. Bone involvement is the most common and prominent imaging feature in patients with SM regardless of the subtype. Furthermore, bone involvement is a prognostic factor as it may entail an aggressive course of the disease. Diagnosis is established by bone marrow biopsy complemented by imaging modalities such as radiography, CT, and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. The radiographic and CT appearances are that of sclerotic, lytic, or mixed patterns with focal or diffuse distribution, involving primarily the axial skeleton and the ends of the long bones. Bone marrow infiltration is best recognized on MR imaging. Osteoporosis is common in SM; thus, a bone mineral density measurement at lumbar spine and proximal femur by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry should be obtained. Imaging plays a huge part in the diagnostic process; when skeletal imaging findings are carefully interpreted and correlated with clinical features, they can lead to the suspicion of SM. The primary aims of this review article were to focus on the role of imaging in detection and characterization of skeletal patterns of SM and to discuss relevant clinical features that could facilitate prompt and correct diagnosis.
