Osteoid Osteoma of the Calcaneus and Patella: A Report of Two Cases and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 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
The presence of an osteoid osteoma (OO) in the calcaneus and patella remains an uncommon condition. These lesions can often lead to diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties. Initial assessment and cautious management contribute to excellent results and limited complications. We report a 20-year-old male with OO of the calcaneus and a 35-year-old male with OO of the patella. The clinical suspicion, in combination with thorough imaging control, can lead to the final diagnosis. Imaging examinations usually reveal a nidus; however, computed tomography remains the gold-standard tool for the detection and diagnosis of lesions. The state-of-the-art therapeutic methods emphasize minimally invasive techniques. The unusual location of these tumors emphasizes the specific need for careful management and minimally invasive treatment, which ultimately contributes to excellent outcomes with minimal adverse effects.
