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

backgroundOsteochondroma is one of the most common benign bone tumors, and it may cause bone and joint deformities and limited range of motion of an adjacent joint. The pes anserinus region is one of the most frequent sites of osteochondroma, but knee locking caused by osteochondromas in the pes anserinus region is extremely rare. CASE SUMMARY: We describe a 13-year-old Japanese girl's extra-articular knee locking that occurred when the semitendinosus tendon got caught in osteochondroma that had developed in the pes anserinus region. The osteochondroma was surgically resected. The postoperative outcome has been excellent, with no recurrence of knee locking or tumor one-year post-surgery.

conclusionWhen a young person develops knee locking, the possibility of extra-articular as well as intra-articular locking should be considered. Osteochondroma, one of the causes of extra-articular locking, can be treated with surgery with good postoperative results.
