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 osteomas of the talus are rarely seen. They can easily be misdiagnosed. In this case report, we present a 21-year-old man with an osteoid osteoma in the talar neck whose pain onset coincided with an ankle injury. The latter was deemed a misleading factor when making a diagnosis. Eventually, the patient was treated with surgical excision of the osteoid osteoma. The gap that resulted after the excision was filled with an autologous bone graft. A year after his operation, the patient returned to his daily activities and remained pain-free. A high index of suspicion and an appropriate imaging examination are mandated for the early diagnosis of such entities.
