Extensive Synovial Osteochondromatosis Secondary to Avascular Necrosis of the Femoral Head: A Case of Multifocal Extra-articular Involvement.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Synovial osteochondromatosis (SOC) is an uncommon benign disorder of synovial metaplasia, characterized by cartilaginous or osseous loose bodies within the joint, bursa, or tendon sheath. We report a case of a 40-year-old female who presented initially with hip pain and limitation of motion on her right side. Imaging revealed avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head along with depicted early SOC. The patient had significant symptom relief with conservative management. However, at follow-up, imaging consistently demonstrated significant progression of SOC with numerous calcified loose bodies intra- and extra-articularly involving adjacent muscle groups. There were also moderate findings of secondary osteoarthritis of the hip noted. The patient was scheduled for open surgical synovectomy. This case illustrates the aggressive nature of secondary SOC within the setting of the necrotic femoral head and calls for early imaging and surgical planning within the complex arena of joint disorders.
