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

Recurrent aphthous ulcers are the most common inflammatory lesions of the oral mucosa, occurring in up to 10% of the population and even more common in children. The history, morphological characteristics, predilection sides and typical stages of aphthae help to distinguish them from other diseases that may exhibit aphthous-like lesions. Underlying diseases should be excluded. The main goals of therapy are to minimize pain and functional disabilities as well as decrease frequency and severity of recurrences. Topical symptomatic relief is the standard of care for simple cases of recurrent aphthosis. In cases of major aphthosis or systemic involvement, topical therapies are still useful but should be combined with systemic therapy, such as colchicine, pentoxifylline or prednisolone. In case of Adamantiades-Behçet disease, systemic immunomodulatory drugs can inhibit the development of new lesions. This overview summarizes morphological and presentation forms of aphthae, differential diagnoses and evidence-based therapeutic possibilities.
