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

Background: The purpose of this paper was to review the MRI features and treatment for idiopathic chondrolysis of the hip (ICH) in patients aged 18 years or less. Methods: We included studies published in English up to August 2021. We accessed major electronic bibliographic databases on ICH that described MRI features, treatment, or both. We used the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical appraisal checklist for case reports for Risk of bias assessment. Results: We pooled 136 hips (125 participants) from 35 studies with 11.6 ± 3.4 years mean age. We had 46, 8, and 106 hips to assess ICH's MRI, pharmacological, and operative interventions. Geometric marrow edema (GME) ( Discussion: GME may be the most specific and early MRI feature in diagnosing ICH. GME and DME show an inverse relationship over time. So, it is with FCL and DCL. Despite reports on the efficacy of biologics, immunomodulators, and operations, early and late ICH management remains controversial due to poor quality studies. Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s43465-022-00684-7.
