Treatment of Pathological Proximal Femur Fracture in a Child With a Unicameral Bone Cyst: 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 2 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
Pathological proximal femur fractures secondary to unicameral bone cysts in the pediatric age group are uncommon. Despite the development of modern surgical treatments and implant choices, it is still debatable what the gold standard of treatment is for a unicameral bone cyst with pathological proximal femur fractures. We report a case of an eight-year-old child with a unicameral bone cyst and pathological fracture of the proximal right femur who was surgically treated with curettage, synthetic bone graft, and a pediatric hip plate as the choice of implant for osteosynthesis and stability.
