"Osteogenesis Imperfecta Patients Wish Orthopedic Surgeons Had Better Strategies to Help with…"-Results of a Patient and Parent-Oriented Survey.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder in Type I collagen characterized by bone fractures, fragility, and deformity. Current treatments are focused on decreasing fracture rates, improving bone strength, and improving overall global function. Recent research has focused primarily on fracture fixation and outcomes of intramedullary rodding of long bones. While surgical techniques continue to evolve, recent trends in OI research are focusing on patient quality of life and patient-reported outcomes. We created a 12-question survey seeking information regarding aspects of orthopedic care that OI patients and families feel are the most pressing to improve. The survey was electronically administered, and 341 individuals participated. A total of 75% of respondents who answered the age question (254/335) were adults. Regarding surgical intervention for long bones, only 16% of respondents recall being told they could not have surgery because they were too young. Of the 16%, 37.8% were told that <5 years was too young, 13.4% <4 years was too young, and 48.8% <3 years of age was too young for surgical intervention for fractures or deformities. Nearly 22% of respondents were told that their bones were too small for intramedullary fixation. The patient and family responses help elucidate the topics requiring focus for the improvement of OI orthopedic care. Patient concerns and insights should drive the research questions we ask to advance the orthopedic care of OI patients.
