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

Chondroblastoma is a rare benign tumor, typically presenting in the first two decades. Systemic metastases in chondroblastoma are extremely rare and it is the rarity of these metastases which lead the World Health Organisation to re-classify this lesion from "intermediate" to "benign" in its updated classification of bone tumors in 2020. We present an unusual case of a 55 year-old male patient who presented with multiple FDG-avid bone lesions on a background of conventional chondroblastoma of the rib excised at another institution 11-years previously. Two of these lesions were also histologically-proven as conventional chondroblastoma at biopsy. This case highlights that, although rare, metastases can be seen in patients with chondroblastoma. To our knowledge, this is the only case with an unusual pattern of metastases limited to bone.
