A rare case of long-term joint swelling caused by pigmented villonodular synovitis in a 3-year-old girl: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The clinical symptoms of pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) are usually insidious and non-specific; therefore, delays in diagnosis and treatment are common. Here, we describe a case of a 3-year-old patient presenting with long-term joint swelling to highlight the significance of considering PVNS as a differential diagnosis in children to prevent misdiagnosis and ensure early treatment. After arthroscopic debridement, our patient had a favorable clinical outcome and was free of recurrence.
