Tumour-induced osteomalacia: a rare cause of chronic pain and weakness.
Article in Practical neurology, 2022. 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
Tumor-induced osteomalacia is a rare and often misdiagnosed condition that presents with progressively worsening unexplained chronic pain and proximal muscle weakness. The osteomalacia leads to multiple stress fractures which do not heal properly, leading to progressive disability. It is caused by chronic hypophosphatemia due to inappropriate urinary phosphate wasting. This is due to a typically benign mesenchymal tumor that over-secretes a phospaturic hormone. Neurologists need to appreciate the relevance of chronic hypophosphatemia in people with chronic unexplained pain, as timely diagnosis and treatment of tumour-induced osteomalacia can be curative.
