Management of Ewing Sarcoma of Distal Fibula in Child: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Ewing's sarcoma is the second most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents, after osteosarcoma. It is a rare tumor, with the axial skeleton being the preferred site of development, followed by the long bones. Diagnosis is evoked by imaging and confirmed by histology. Treatment is based on intensive chemotherapy with local surgical treatment in operable forms, and in some cases, radiotherapy. There are only a few sporadic cases in the literature describing distal fibular localization. Case Report: We report the case of a 7-year-old child who presented with pain on the lateral aspect of the left ankle without local inflammatory signs. Radiological findings revealed a metaphyseal-diaphyseal osteolytic tissue process of the left fibula, and histology concluded that it was Ewing's sarcoma. We proceeded with neoadjuvant polychemotherapy followed by segmental resection of the distal fibula with an anteroexternal tibial rod, plus tibiotalar, and talocalcaneal arthrodesis without recourse to radiotherapy. Conclusion: The management of Ewing's sarcoma is constantly evolving. Its distal fibular location in a growing limb makes it even more difficult. It must be personalized, multidisciplinary, and carried out in specialized centers.
