Radiographic assessment of a keratocystic odontogenic tumour using cone-beam computed tomography.
Article in European archives of paediatric dentistry : official journal of the European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe keratocystic odontogenic tumour (KCOT), formerly known as the odontogenic keratocyst, is a benign intra-osseous odontogenic tumour. The KCOT is characterised by a potential for locally destructive behaviour and a relatively high recurrence rate. Most KCOT are incidentally discovered as well-defined unilocular or multilocular radiolucencies on routine panoramic radiographs. CASE REPORT: A 15-year-old boy was referred to dental care with a non-syndromic KCOT in the right angle of the mandible. Using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a diagnostic instrument for precise assessment of the KCOT, the exact location of the lesion was determined. TREATMENT: The cystic formation was enucleated without peripheral ostectomy. FOLLOW-UP: At post-operative follow-up after 3 and 6 months, the boy reported no pain and there was no residual swelling or fracture. Imaging was planned after 1 year to decide whether further surgical treatment is indicated.
conclusionThe CBCT is considered beneficial in cases of cystic formations to determine the localisation and borders of the lesion in all three dimensions.
