Anatomical Joint Form Variation in Sacroiliac Joint Disease: Current Concepts and New Perspectives.
Review in Current rheumatology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purpose of reviewThe aim of this article is to further the understanding of anatomical variation of the sacroiliac joint (SIJ) within the rheumatological community and point out promising fields of research in the interplay of SIJ anatomy and joint disease. RECENT
findingsMechanical strain has long been implicated in onset and progression of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). Recent investigations found changes in the pattern of degenerative lesions of the SIJ in the normal population in patients with atypical joint forms. Furthermore, atypical SIJ forms are more prevalent in patients with axial spondyloarthritis and mechanical SIJ disease. Mechanical stress from anatomical joint form variation may have an impact on development and progression of axSpA. Furthermore, mechanically induced bone marrow edema may act as an axSpA mimic on MRI and needs to be more accurately classified.
