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

Physical therapy modalities play an essential role in the treatment of osteonecrosis and bone marrow edema. In addition to an accurate diagnosis, it is essential to understand the pathogenesis of the disease in order to define relevant physiological, cellular and biochemical targets. After careful consideration of efficacy and side effects, these therapies can be used both as adjunctive measures and as stand-alone treatments to prevent disease progression. In particular, shock wave and magnetic field therapies show promising results both clinically and in ongoing trials. In addition, in the acute phase, a targeted unloading phase may be helpful to reduce mechanical pressure on bone tissue. Interdisciplinary treatment planning and patient compliance are of similar importance.
