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

Congenital and acquired conditions presenting with leg length discrepancy, leg deformity or short stature are not only a challenge for paediatric orthopaedic surgeons in terms of treatment options but may also involve a number of medical specialties due to the complex clinical manifestations of the diseases. Various surgical treatment options are available for these rare genetic diseases, including bone lengthening and growth inhibition techniques for lower limb discrepancy, as well as guided growth and other surgical procedures for correction of angular deformities. Surgical techniques may be similar, but the treatment plans and specific multidisciplinary approaches may differ. The present report is focused on paediatric orthopaedic and multidisciplinary aspects of the treatment of rare bone diseases. We address the clinical presentation of these diseases, gait and surgical procedures for conditions such as achondroplasia, X‑linked hypophosphatemia and osteogenesis imperfecta. We also provide a short overview of other rare bone diseases.
