Case Report: Trapdoor procedure combined with arthrodiastasis treating chondroblastoma of the femoral head in adolescents.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 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
Chondroblastoma is a rare benign bone tumor that typically arises in the epiphysis. The primary treatment strategy involves complete curettage of the lesion. However, there is limited literature regarding the management of chondroblastoma specifically located in the femoral head. Following simple curettage alone, the femoral head is prone to collapse due to injury to the growth plate and the effects of weight-bearing stress. Arthrodiastasis can provide a conducive environment for healing and remodeling of the necrotic or grafted femoral head by maintaining continuous distraction of the hip joint space and reducing mechanical pressure. Analogous to the use of skeletal traction in fracture management, sustained arthrodiastasis can effectively counteract compressive forces exerted by muscular contraction on the femoral head. We present the case of a 15-year-old patient with a chondroblastoma localized in the right femoral head who demonstrated favorable clinical and radiographic outcomes following Trapdoor procedure combined with Arthrodiastasis treatment.
