Review in Unfallchirurgie (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
Pathological fractures in children are most commonly caused by benign bone tumors, while malignant tumors rarely occur; however, the consequences of a missed pathological fracture due to malignancy or inadequate treatment of these fractures are severe. Localization, grade of Lodwick classification, tumor matrix and periosteal reaction of the bone tumor should be assessed on plain X‑radiographs. Conservative treatment is indicated in nondislocated fractures where there is a suspicion of benign or intermediate bone tumors. In dislocated pathological fractures and the suspicion of a benign or intermediate lesion, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is recommended because it can substantially influence the choice of surgical treatment. A biopsy should also be taken during surgery. In the case of pathological fractures caused by potentially malignant bone tumors patients should immediately be immobilized and transferred to a musculoskeletal tumor center for extended diagnostics and treatment.
