Osteopetrosis in the pediatric patient: what the radiologist needs to know.
Review in Pediatric radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Osteopetrosis describes several types of rare sclerosing bone dysplasias of varying clinical and radiographic severity. The classic autosomal dominant subtype emerges most often in adolescence but can present from infancy through adulthood. The autosomal recessive osteopetrosis, or "malignant infantile osteopetrosis," presents in infancy with a grimmer prognosis, though the autosomal dominant forms (often mislabeled as "benign") actually can have life-threatening consequences as well. Often osteopetrosis is detected due to skeletal findings on radiographs performed to evaluate injury or as an incidental finding during evaluation for illness. Given the varied phenotypic severity and presentations at different ages, radiologists play an integral role in the care of these patients both in diagnosis and in clinical evaluation and monitoring. A deeper understanding of the underlying genetic basis of the disease can aid in the radiologist in diagnosis and in anticipation of unique complications. An overview of current clinical management is also discussed.
