Giant Cell Tumor With Secondary Aneurysmal Bone Cyst in the Left Distal Humerus: A Case Report.
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
Giant cell tumor (GCT) is a common benign aggressive tumor that mostly occurs in the proximal tibia, distal radius, and distal femur but is rarely seen in the distal region of the humerus. It originally presents between the ages of 30 and 50 with suddenly occurring pain. Treatment is generally curettage adjuvant treatment if necessary and reconstruction if required. In our case report, we present the clinical and radiological findings, diagnosis, and management of a 33-year-old female patient with a giant cell tumor (GCT) accompanied by a secondary aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) in the left distal humerus, where the patient experienced pain for many years without significant history of trauma. Upon clinical examination, the patient displayed tenderness over the medial side of the elbow but no noted swelling, redness, or hotness. She had a painless full range of motion, with an intact distal neurovascular examination. Imaging concluded GCT with secondary ABC. A biopsy confirmed the diagnosis, ruling out metastatic lesions. The patient underwent surgical intervention, with plate fixation, which yielded excellent outcomes.
