Multifocal eosinophilic granuloma with femoral epiphyseal lesion mimicking an aneurysmal bone cyst.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Eosinophilic granuloma (EG) is a rare benign tumor-like disorder characterized by abnormal proliferation Langerhans cells. EG frequently presents as a solitary lesion in the axial skeleton and diaphysis long bones. Here we present the case of a 14-year-old male with multifocal EG with a lesion located in the femoral epiphysis mimicking an aneurysmal bone cyst that presented a diagnostic challenge. While the initial presentation of EG patients may appear uncommon, its overlapping features with other benign and malignant etiologies highlight the importance of increased awareness of this condition, as well as the need for an experienced multidisciplinary team in its diagnosis and treatment.
