Conventional radiography for the assessment of focal bone lesions of the appendicular skeleton: fundamental concepts in the modern imaging era.
Review in Skeletal radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Bone lesions of the appendicular skeleton can be caused by primary benign or malignant tumors, metastases, osteomyelitis, or pseudotumors. Conventional radiography plays a crucial role in the initial assessment of osseous lesions and should not be underestimated even in this era of modern complex and advanced imaging technologies. Combined with patient age, clinical symptoms and biology, and lesion features including location, solitary versus multiplicity, density, margin (transitional zone evaluated with Lodwick-Madewell grading score), and, if present, the type of periosteal reaction and matrix mineralization can narrow the differential diagnosis or offer a likely diagnosis. These radiographic features help guide further follow-up or management.
