A Rare Case of Non-ossifying Fibroma Causing Pathological Subtrochanteric Femur Fracture in a Child: A Common Lesion at an Uncommon Location.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Non-ossifying fibroma (NOF) is a benign expansive lytic lesion more frequently found in children and adolescents at the metaphysis of long bones in and around the knee joint, typically resolving spontaneously or by ossification. This report presents a rare case of an 11-year-old child with a pathological subtrochanteric femur fracture attributed to an underlying NOF. We describe the diagnosis and surgical management of curettage and internal fixation using a proximal humerus locking plate, resulting in complete resorption of the lytic zone and an excellent clinical outcome. This report emphasizes recognizing benign lesions such as NOF at rare locations such as the proximal femur as potential contributors to pathological fractures in the pediatric population.
