Congenital Contractures and Fractures: A Variant of Bruck Syndrome Type 2.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Bruck syndrome, an exceptionally rare autosomal recessive disorder, manifests as bone fragility and congenital joint contractures. This syndrome is recognized as a fusion of arthrogryposis multiplex congenita and osteogenesis imperfecta and is categorized into Types 1 and 2. Bruck syndrome Type 2 stems from a homozygous mutation in the PLOD2 gene and exhibits characteristics such as osteopenia, congenital contractures with pterygia, femoral bowing, club feet, postnatal shorty stature, severe limb deformity, and progressive scoliosis. In this report, we describe the case of an infant presenting with multiple joint contractures of the distal extremities, bilateral talipes equinovarus deformity, and a history of a right femur fracture at birth, managed through closed reduction and plaster of Paris. The current treatment regimen includes physiotherapy, wrist splinting for wrist extension and thumb abduction, and serial casting of both lower limbs.
