A Rare Presentation of Brodie Abscess in the Clavicle.
Article in Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Global research & reviews, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A 12-year-old otherwise healthy boy presented with acute shoulder pain and remote history of trauma. Despite an unimpressive clinical examination, laboratory workup, and initial radiographic evaluation, the patient was ultimately diagnosed with a Brodie abscess of the distal clavicle. Complete resolution was achieved with débridement and tailored antibiotic therapy. These abscesses are rare, often presenting surreptitiously with nonspecific symptoms and without systemic signs of infection. Therefore, maintaining a broad differential and high clinical suspicion is crucial to mitigate the increased morbidity that can result from a delayed diagnosis.
