Localized Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis of the Knee Co-existing with Extra-articular Nodular Synovitis of the Popliteus Tendon Sheath: A Case Report.

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
Pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) is a rare proliferative disorder affecting the synovial membranes of joints, bursae, and tendons. The knee joint is one of the most common locations for an intra-articular type of PVNS and this is usually of the diffuse type of PVNS or diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis (DPVNS). DPVNS tends to be more associated with affectation of contiguous structures. We report a case of a localized form of the disease affecting the knee joint coexisting with an extra-articular lesion of the same nature involving the popliteus tendon sheath of the same knee. The clinical condition was managed with a combined surgical approach of arthroscopic marginal excision for the intra-articular lesion and excision biopsy for the extra-articular lesion.
