Sulcal-Gyral Pattern in the Scalp Fibrous Hamartoma of Infancy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Fibrous hamartoma of infancy (FHI) is a benign soft-tissue tumor that typically presents within the first two years of life. We report an eight-year-old boy with a long-standing, painless, left fronto-parietal scalp mass that enlarged over two years. Physical examination showed a 6×5×2 cm, firm, mobile, non-tender subcutaneous lesion with overlying hair. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a subcutaneous, fat-containing mass without bony involvement and a sulcal-gyral surface pattern. The lesion, including overlying skin and thickened pericranium, was excised en bloc, and the defect closed with a rotational flap. Histopathology confirmed FHI, showing the characteristic triphasic composition of mature adipose tissue, fibrocollagenous fascicles, and primitive spindle-to-stellate cells in a myxoid stroma without atypia or necrosis. This case illustrates that FHI, although usually infantile and truncal, can occur on the scalp in older children, and that complete surgical excision is an effective management option.
