Uncommon presentation of potential medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw.
Article in SpringerPlus, 2016. 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
backgroundThis article presents a patient with potential atypical medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw and reviews related literatures. CASE PRESENTATION: A 52-year-old male showed pain in the left buccal area and had numbness on the left lower lip area. He received medications having anti-angiogenic effect for 4 years. He did not receive irradiation of the jaw regions. In histological view, most of the adipocytes were destroyed and disappeared in the scanty vascular marrow tissue, resulting in the replacement of the fatty necrosis with variable sized vacuolated empty spaces. In the immunohistochemistry analysis, the infiltrated macrophages into the marrow stromal tissue were strongly positive for lysozymes. These findings demonstrate that the presented osteonecrosis underwent a chronic and persistent granulomatous inflammatory reaction.
conclusionsWe conclude that the present case might have been caused by anti-angiogenic drug abuse, affecting the reduction of the mandibular marrow vascularity and subsequently inducing fatty necrosis and an extensive osteolytic change of the mandible.
