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

Periosteal chondromas (PCs) are rare tumors composed of hyaline cartilage that are typically present in long bones and tubular bones of the hand. These lesions are easily mistaken for other, more common tumors. This study reports a case of PC located in the posterior pelvis of a 24-year-old female. The patient initially presented with a four-month history of pelvic pain with a presumptive diagnosis of endometriosis. However, when an MRI was performed, a 6.0 cm x 5.6 cm x 4.5 cm mass was found along the right posterior ilium extending to the ipsilateral sacroiliac joint. The patient underwent intralesional excision and curettage of the mass. Histologic analysis of the excised lesion revealed a proliferation of chondrocytes and abundant hyaline cartilage without chondroblasts, further suggesting the diagnosis of PC. The current study highlights the unusual location of this rare tumor and alerts the physician of the clinical presentation and differential diagnosis.
