Osteosarcoma in a Teenage Athlete With a Swollen Knee Joint.
Article in Cureus, 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
Osteosarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tumour. This primarily manifests in the formation of immature osteoid cells by tumour cells. Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone tumour in children and adolescents. It tends to occur in the metaphysis of long shafts, shows osteoblastic differentiation, and produces malignant osteoid material. We present the case of a 17-year-old male who presented to our clinic who had left knee pain for a few days. An initial radiograph of the knee joint revealed a lytic lesion in the proximal tibia and further imaging was advised. During a follow-up visit, the patient had worsening pain and had a computerized tomography scan of the left knee, confirming osteosarcoma on the lateral side of the left tibia. He was referred to the orthopaedic department, where a biopsy was performed, to confirm the diagnosis of osteosarcoma. The patient was commenced on chemotherapy due to metastatic disease and has so far tolerated therapy well.
