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

Tumor induced osteomalacia is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by usually small mesenchymal tumors. The tumors are commonly located in the extremities whereas occurrence in the nasal cavity is quite rare. An 18 year old male presented with asymmetric weakness of both lower limbs and difficulty in walking since one year. On evaluation he was found to have open femur head physes and iliac apophyses, low serum Phosphorus, low vitamin D, normal serum calcium, elevated PTH & alkaline phosphatase levels. FGF-23 levels in serum were elevated. DOTA NOC PET CT revealed tumor in the left nasal cavity abutting the nasal septum. Surgical excision of the tumor resulted in normalisation of the serum levels of phosphorus, vitamin D and FGF-23. This case report indicates the importance of maintaining high clinical suspicion and early detection of causative tumor using appropriate imaging techniques.
