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

Osteochondroma represents a bone outgrowth covered by cartilaginous tissue and localized on the external surface of the bone. The incidence of osteochondroma is 20-35% of all pediatric benign tumors. Osteochondromas can be present in solitary or multiple forms and usually occur in the metaphysis of long bones in immature skeletons. The present study aimed to retrospectively determine the association between imaging diagnostic accuracy and histopathological examinations, which are the main methods of diagnosis for this type of tumor. A total of 66 patients presenting with radiological aspects of osteochondroma were initially selected; however, only the 56 patients who had a positive histopathological diagnosis of osteochondroma were eventually included in this study. Patient characteristics were taken into consideration and included age, sex, lesion localization, lesion imaging semiotics and histopathological aspects. Osteochondromas are generally asymptomatic lesions that are often incidentally diagnosed after trauma, which makes it difficult to determine the exact incidence of this pathology.
