Cervical spine tenosynovial giant cell tumor involving the atlantoaxial joint in a pediatric patient with medulloblastoma.
Review in Skeletal radiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a benign condition that arises from tendon sheaths, synovium, or bursae and is classified according to the site of involvement (intra-articular versus extra-articular) and pattern of growth (localized versus diffuse). The diffuse form tends to present as peri-articular masses and are locally aggressive. It usually presents as a mono-articular process affecting larger joints. Spinal involvement is extremely rare, particularly the cervical spine. In this case report, we present a pediatric case of spinal TGCT involving the C1-C2 joint which was incidentally detected in a 13-year-old girl undergoing surveillance for medulloblastoma recurrence. Although spinal TGCT is a benign condition, it remains a diagnostic challenge, which specific to our case can raise the concern for malignancy or metastasis. We also described a percutaneous biopsy approach using a spring-loaded blunt tip coaxial needle to avoid inadvertent vascular injury. The imaging features of spinal TGCT and biopsy approach for atlantoaxial lesion are discussed together with a comprehensive review of the literature.
