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

Background: Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion where normal bone is replaced with immature dysplastic woven bone and fibrous tissue. Fibrous dysplasia has the potential to involve multiple bones of the craniofacial area in a rare condition. Management of this involvement type should be assessed carefully. Case report: Here, we report a 52-year-old man with progressive and bilateral frontal headache. The radio/pathologic diagnosis revealed fibrous dysplasia of paranasal sinuses with anterior skull-base extension and pneumocephalus. The patient underwent a craniotomy, and 2 weeks after the procedure, the symptoms were alleviated without any complications. Conclusion: in case of fibrous dysplasia, patients with new onset and/or mild symptoms may have extensive lesions in multiple craniofacial bones.
