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

McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is somatic mosaicism disorder due to mutations in GNAS gene leading to a combination of fibrous dysplasia of bone, café-au-lait skin lesion and hyperfunctioning endocrinopathies. We report an 11-year-old boy who presented with bone pains and easy fractures with minor traumas that were treated with surgeries. He had multiple café-au-lait lesions, hypertrophic scars of prior surgeries and deformities of bones on examination and primary hyperthyroidism on investigation. His condition was initially misdiagnosed as osteogenesis imperfecta but the finding of hyperthyroidism reaffirms the diagnosis of MAS. He was treated with pamidronate, carbimazole and surgical operations to correct bony deformities.
