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

backgroundFibrous dysplasia associated with aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC)-like changes in the right proximal femur has a low incidence. It is considered more difficult to make early diagnosis than for single fibrous dysplasia. CASE SUMMARY: A 14-year-old woman was admitted because of persistent pain in the right hip and abnormal gait over the previous 2 mo. She had no history of present or past illness. Preoperative photography, enhanced computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging showed ground-glass appearance with cortical scalloping and expansion of the right proximal femur and femoral neck. Pathological examination by preoperative puncture biopsy revealed fibrous dysplasia of the right proximal femur. The patient was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia based on medical history, physical examination, and results of laboratory, imaging and pathological examinations. According to final pathological examination, the patient was diagnosed with fibrous dysplasia of the right proximal femur associated with ABC. Curettage and allograft along with fixation of compression screws was performed for fibrous dysplasia associated with ABC-like changes. No obvious allograft absorption, loosening of fixation, or secondary fracture were observed during 6-months' follow-up with re-examination by plain radiography and computed tomography. Fibrous dysplasia associated with ABC-like changes in the right proximal femur has a low incidence and early diagnosis is considered more difficult than for single fibrous dysplasia.

conclusionWe report a cases of fibrous dysplasia associated with ABC-like changes in the right proximal femur treated with curettage and allograft along with hip compression screws.
