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

Enchondroma is the most common cartilaginous tumor. It usually involves small tubular bones, and its location is commonly in the metacarpus and fingers of the ulnar side of the hand. We report a case of enchondroma in a 34-year-old woman who presented with a 6-month history of pain, limited range of motion and swelling in middle phalanx of fourth finger of left hand. Radiological evaluation revealed lytic cystic lesion showing with round margins and soap bubble lesion. The specific feature of this case was presence of swelling which usually appears in the late stages. The patient underwent surgery with cyst evacuation, and a cancellous bone graft from the iliac crest was placed at the lesion site. At 6 months follow up, the patient had a full range of motion without any signs of cyst recurrence, and the bone graft was completely replaced. We found this method to be an effective and safe approach for tumor removal and bone reconstruction.
