Osteoid Osteoma on the Distal Phalanx of the Ring Finger: A Rare Case Report.

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
Osteoid osteoma (OO) is a benign osteoblastic lesion and a relatively common bone tumor; however, its diagnosis can be challenging depending on the site of occurrence. We present a rare case of OO located in the distal phalanx of the right ring finger in a 23-year-old male. The patient experienced pain and swelling beginning two months after sustaining a finger contusion. Radiographic evaluation, including X-rays and CT, revealed a radiolucent lesion with central calcification characteristic of OO. Surgical excision was performed, preserving the nail bed, and histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis. At the two-month follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence. This case underscores the importance of including OO in the differential diagnosis of fingertip bone lesions. Complete surgical resection can lead to excellent clinical outcomes without functional compromise.
