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

Gorham-Stout disease is a rare condition characterized by the massive osteolysis replaced with vascular or lymphatic proliferation and fibrous tissue. We report the case of a 13-year-old boy complaining of occasional lower back pain. Spinal X-ray showed scoliosis and pelvic asymmetry, CT and MRI revealed multiple osteolysis replaced by soft tissue without osteogenesis in lumbar vertebrae, sacrum, iliac bone, ischium and acetabulum and horseshoe kidney. Laboratory and clinical findings excluded all other potential causes of osteolysis and the patient was diagnosed as Gorham-Stout disease, although no lymphangioma or hemangioma were found in the specimen of right iliac bone. The report shows an unusual, multifocal Gorham-Stout disease in a 13-year-old boy with horseshoe kidney, suggesting that the typical imaging findings and raising awareness of the disease can facilitate timely diagnosis for the disease.
