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

Multiple enchondromatosis (Ollier Disease) is characterized by the presence of enchondromas predominantly affecting long and flat bones, and only exceptionally involving cranial bones. The aim of this study is to highlight the extreme rarity of bilateral hand involvement in Ollier disease, occurring simultaneously with other unusual localizations - such as the scapula - and exceedingly rare ones, such as the vomer bone. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the psychological impact of this pathology and the need for appropriate psychological and psychiatric support for affected patients. A systematic literature search was performed to identify English-language articles published between January 2015 and July 2025 concerning Ollier disease (enchondromatosis) with bilateral hand involvement in adult patients. The databases searched included PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The following search terms were used in various combinations: "Ollier disease," "enchondromatosis," "multiple enchondromas," "adult," "bilateral hands," "case report," "case series," and "chondrosarcoma." Inclusion and exclusion criteria were defined, and data were systematically recorded. In addition, we report a case of Ollier disease in a young male patient presenting with multiple rare bone lesions along with numerous comorbidities. The review confirms the exceptional rarity of cases involving both hands, with only five such reports identified in the analyzed literature. No cases of malignant transformation were reported in the studies included in this review. Ollier disease is a severe, debilitating pathology with limited therapeutic options and a significant risk of malignant transformation.
