Acute Primary Epiphyseal Osteomyelitis of Proximal Tibia - A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2021. 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
Introduction: Acute pyogenic epiphyseal osteomyelitis is a rare condition, mostly affecting children. This case report discusses the importance of clinical suspicion and the role of adjuncts in the diagnosis of these cases. Case Presentation: A 12-year-old female presented with pain in the right knee for 1 week and difficulty in walking for 4 days. Diagnosis was made with the help of magnetic resonance imaging MRI and guided biopsy. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated from culture. She was treated with intravenous antibiotics with a good response. Discussion: Despite being a rarely reported entity, primary epiphyseal osteomyelitis should be kept as one of the differentials of the painful swollen knee in a child. Early diagnosis with the help of proper radiological investigations is the key to prevent the sequelae of this disease.
