Buschke-Ollendorff Syndrome: A Rare Cause of Unilateral Genu Valgum.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome is a rare, often benign, autosomal dominant skin disorder. This syndrome commonly presents with non-tender connective tissue nevi and sclerotic bony lesions. Characteristic skeletal findings such as melorheostosis and hyperostosis are usually present. Most cases are detected incidentally. Skin lesions appear first and become less noticeable with age. Bone lesions occur in the later decades of life. Another rarely associated symptom, melorheostosis, is manifested by the appearance of wax running through the cortex of the bone. Plain radiographs usually show cortical hyperostosis. This study aims to present a case report of Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome from an orthopedic aspect and emphasize the importance of the disease since it can be easily assessed as a bone tumor. Second, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first case presented with a unilateral genu valgum deformity with a long-term follow-up in the relevant literature.
