Hemiarthroplasty for tumor-induced osteomalacia caused by tumor localized in femoral head: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 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
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare tumor-associated syndrome in which osteomalacia is induced by a tumor. A 67-year-old male patient presented for the first time with low back pain, weakness of the lower extremities and difficulty in walking. Six years earlier, he had nonspecific symptoms such as low back pain, and blood tests showed high alkaline phosphatase and low phosphorus. In addition, fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) was abnormally high at 454 pg/mL. A diagnosis of FGF23-related hypophosphatemic osteomalacia was made. Somatostatin receptor scintigraphy, venous sampling and MRI were performed to localize and diagnose TIO. The tumor was found to be confined to the right femoral head and hemiarthroplasty was performed. Pathological examination revealed a phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor. Postoperatively, symptoms and blood test data improved. Although resection of the lesion and osteochondral transplantation or total hip arthroplasty were considered, hemiarthroplasty was chosen over concerns about treatment failure due to seeding.
