Transient Hip Osteoporosis: Etiopathogenetic, Clinical, and Imaging Approach.
Review in Mediterranean journal of rheumatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Transient Hip Osteoporosis (THO) is a relatively rare, benign, and usually self-limiting disease caused by bone marrow edema, depicted on MRI. It presents with sudden onset of pain or may be asymptomatic. Given the poor coverage of this subject in the relevant international literature and the lack of sufficient understanding of the aetiopathogenic mechanisms underlying this condition, no established diagnostic guidelines are available, leading to frequent under- or overdiagnosis. Therefore, great care should be taken to provide a correct differential diagnosis in order to achieve proper treatment. The international literature from 1990 to 2020 was searched in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The keywords: bone marrow edema, transient osteoporosis, osteonecrosis, and aetiopathogenesis were used, and original studies and review articles in English and Greek language were retrieved. Based on evidence provided in the current literature, this article offers a definition and describes in a concise and comprehensive manner the aetiopathogenesis, symptomatology, imaging findings, and differential diagnosis of the disease, in order to provide physicians with a sound knowledge of the condition, necessary to their clinical practice.
