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 a rare genetic disorder characterized by fibrous dysplasia of bone, café-au-lait skin pigmentation, and endocrine abnormalities. Adult presentation with spinal fibrous dysplasia, although previously reported, is uncommon and diagnostically challenging. We report 2 cases of MAS diagnosed in young women who initially presented with persistent back pain. Both patients underwent imaging studies that revealed multiple lytic lesions in the spine, raising concern for metastatic disease. Further evaluation confirmed the presence of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia without evidence of malignancy. Both patients had a history of precocious puberty, consistent with the syndrome's known manifestations. In 1 case, the diagnosis was supported by detection of a somatic
