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

A 60-year-old woman with chronic pain in the left long finger, occasionally involving the ring finger and intermittently extending to the hand, wrist, and distal forearm, was referred for radiographs and a triple-phase technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy to evaluate for possible complex regional pain syndrome. Initial radiographs were normal. A three-phase bone scan revealed focal radiotracer uptake at the distal aspect of the long finger during the blood pool phase only, with normal blood flow and delayed phases, suggesting a hypervascular soft tissue tumor. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging showed a hypervascular nodule in the nail bed of the long finger. The lesion was surgically resected, and pathology results confirmed the diagnosis of a glomus tumor.
