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

Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG) is a rare benign histiocytic disorder, typically affecting the skin of infants and young children. Extracutaneous manifestations are uncommon, and laryngeal involvement is exceedingly rare but potentially life-threatening. We report the case of a young girl with a one-year history of dysphonia and dyspnea. Laryngoscopy revealed a JXG of the left vocal fold which was endoscopically removed. The patient remains to this date symptom-free without recurrence. Only eleven cases of upper airway or tracheal JXG have been published so far. Therapeutic strategies range from tracheostomy to endoscopic excision. Our case underscores the risks of airway obstruction in this otherwise benign condition. It provides guidance for general management and highlights the importance of complete resection and close follow-up, given the notable risk of recurrence.
