Case Series - Osteochondromas at Rare Locations.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: Osteochondromas are very common. They are typically seen in long bones and rarely seen in smaller bones. Some of the rare presentations include flat bones, the body of pelvis, scapula, skull, and small bones of the hand and foot. Their presentation also varies according to the site of presentation. Case Report: We have included five cases of osteochondromas occurring at rare locations with variable presentations and their management. We have included one case of metacarpal, one case of skull exostosis, two cases of scapula exostosis, and one case of fibula exostosis. Conclusion: Osteochondromas can rarely occur at unusual locations. It is important to thoroughly evaluate all patients presenting with swelling and pain over bony regions to accurately diagnose osteochondromas and manage accordingly.
