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

Hamartomas are well-recognized benign growths associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), occurring frequently in the skin, central nervous system, and kidneys. Although musculoskeletal manifestations have been documented, intra-articular hamartomas originating specifically from the joint capsule have not been previously reported to the best of our knowledge. We present a unique case involving a 9-year-old female with genetically confirmed TSC who exhibited multiple intra-articular hamartomatous lesions originating from the joint capsules of the hip and knee. These lesions were distinctly visible on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), displaying signal characteristics consistent with hamartomas, and they were confirmed by histopathological analysis. This underscores the importance of considering capsular hamartomas in the differential diagnosis of intra-articular masses in TSC and highlights the diagnostic value of MRI in identifying such rare manifestations.
