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

Scapular pseudo-winging caused by ventral osteochondromas is a condition that has been rarely reported in the current literature. This manuscript reports two cases of scapular ventral osteochondromas in pediatric patients. Two female pediatric patients presented at our department with swelling mass of the scapula as well as pseudo-winging. The physical examination revealed a bony mass stemming from the body of the scapula. The diagnostic imaging included radiographs and CT, depicting the presence of ventral osteochondromas located on the body of the scapula in both patients. Surgical excision was performed leading to excellent post-operative results with complete resolution of deformity and symptoms. This case report highlights the role of ventral osteochondromas as a reason for scapular pseudo-winging. Clinical suspicion should be raised among orthopaedic surgeons for proper recognition and targeted management of scapular pseudo-winging cases caused by ventral osteochondromas.
