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

Osteoid osteoma is a common benign tumour. It mainly affects the long bones and spine. The pelvic ring is a rare localization for it. We report the case of a 24-year-old woman who complained of buttock pain, mainly nocturnal and resistant to the usual medical analgesic treatment and radiating to the lateral region of the left hip. Pelvis X-rays and computed tomography scan showed an osteoid osteoma located in the left ischiopubic ramus. We performed a minimally invasive resection of this tumour using a custom-made 3D-printed drill guide. We noted no operative incidents, and the patient no longer complained of tumour-related pain in the immediate postoperative period. At 24-month follow-up, the patient was pain-free and we did not note recurrence of the tumour. The 3D printing of a customized guide for surgical drilling of an osteoid osteoma with a rare and deep-seated location such as the pelvis is an interesting alternative in its nonconservative treatment.
