A Minimally Invasive Novel Technique Using a New Device to Treat Proximal Femoral Cystic Lesions.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionBone grafts are widely performed to fill bone cavities and accelerate bone ingrowth. Advances in minimally invasive surgical techniques to treat bone tumors provide the impetus for minimally invasive bone graft procedures. A special funnel with an inner plunger has been manufactured specifically for the delivery of bone graft substitutes. TECHNIQUE: Secondary bone cysts in two patients with fibrous dysplasia (a 42-year-old male and a 36-year-old female) were treated with the bone graft substitute β-tricalcium phosphateby implantation through a small fenestration in the greater trochanter using a special funnel. Bone consolidation has been observed at about 6 months after the surgery.
conclusionsSecondary bone cysts in two patients with fibrous dysplasiaare presented as representative cases for this method. The funnel was particularly useful for proximal femoral cystic lesions, as a solitary bone cyst; it facilitated a minimally invasive surgical procedure without the need for curettage. Small fenestrations reduce the likelihood of surgery-related fractures. Long-term follow-up is necessary to confirm the method and is capable of curing secondary bone cysts in patients with fibrous dysplasia.
