Diagnosis and treatment of juvenile yellow granuloma in a child: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2026. 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
introductionJuvenile yellow granuloma (JXG) is a reactive proliferation of histiocytes rather than a true neoplasm. We present an extremely rare case of osseous JXG, which highlights the nonspecific imaging features and diagnostic challenges associated with this lesion. CASE PRESENTATION: This report describes the diagnosis and management of JXG in the proximal tibia of a 4-year-old Asian girl. The lesion was incidentally discovered following an ankle sprain. Imaging studies (X-ray, CT, MRI) initially suggested eosinophilic granuloma. Laboratory tests revealed elevated high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (43.84 mg/L) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (63 mm/h). Biopsy revealed giant cell-rich tumors with foam cell aggregates. Immunohistochemistry was consistent with xanthoma. Given the large lesion size (6.8 × 3.5 × 3.1 cm) and involvement of the epiphyseal plate, the patient underwent robot-assisted curettage, implantation of artificial bone/cement, Kirschner wire fixation, and cast immobilization. Final pathological diagnosis, confirmed by immunohistochemistry (CD68+, CD163+, S-100-), was JXG.
conclusionsThis case underscores the rarity and imaging nonspecificity of osseous JXG, emphasizing the critical role of histopathology combined with immunohistochemistry for definitive diagnosis. A multimodal treatment approach involving curettage, epiphyseal plate protection, and mechanical stabilization achieved a successful outcome. Long-term follow-up is necessary to monitor for potential epiphyseal injury and recurrence.
