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

Osteochondroma is the most common benign bone tumor; however, large-scale epidemiologic data remain limited, particularly in Asian populations. This nationwide registry-based study aimed to clarify the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of osteochondroma in Japan. Patients diagnosed with osteochondroma between 2006 and 2019 were identified from the Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor (BSTT) Registry of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association. Demographics, tumor location, subtype (solitary osteochondroma [SO] vs. multiple osteochondroma [MO]), and surgical history were analyzed, and comparisons between SO and MO were performed using χ
