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

Mazabraud syndrome is a rare condition characterized by fibrous dysplasia and intramuscular myxomas. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with chronic lumbosacral pain and imaging findings consistent with this syndrome, confirmed by biopsy. After years of conservative management with stable lesions but persistent symptoms, she underwent fluoroscopy-guided radiofrequency neurotomy of sacroiliac innervation, achieving complete pain relief and functional recovery. The patient was followed for five months after the intervention, with sustained symptom control and functional improvement. This case illustrates the diagnostic challenge and underscores the novelty of a targeted, minimally invasive interventional approach for symptom control in Mazabraud syndrome.
