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

Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumor commonly occurring in the diaphysis and metaphysis of long bones. Only a few cases were reported in the literature about the rare location of epiphyseal osteoid osteoma and all were treated surgically. Herein, we report a rare case of an epiphyseal tibial osteoid osteoma, in a 14-year-old boy, which was initially diagnosed by imaging and confirmed by histopathology. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of an epiphyseal osteoid osteoma treated successfully by CT-guided radiofrequency ablation in a pediatric patient with a good outcome and no detrimental effects. The case highlights the rarity of such presentation, the importance of early imaging and diagnosis, and the success of CT-guided radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of epiphyseal osteoid osteoma.
