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

statement of the problemIt is necessary for surgeons and practitioners to know about relative incidence and clinicopathologic features of lesions for accurate diagnosis and approach of pathologic lesions. Data are limited about overall incidence of intra-osseous lesions of the jaws in Iranian patients. PURPOSE: This study evaluated the clinicopathologic features of intra- osseous lesions of the jaws in an Iranian population, in a 22-year period. MATERIALS AND

methodIn this cross- sectional retrospective analytical study, 4500 specimens in a 22- year period were reviewed. Baseline data of all patients with intra- osseous lesions including type and location of lesions as well as patients' age and gender, were collected and analyzed by SPSS software using descriptive analysis and Chi-square test.

resultsThere were 1121 (25%) intra-osseous lesion. Odontogenic cysts and benign non- odontogenic bone lesions were the most common categories, respectively. The mean age of the patients was 30.1±16, the total male to female ratio was 1.1:1, and the most prevalent location of lesions was posterior of mandible.

conclusionThe results showed baseline information of intra-osseous lesions that were essentially similar to other populations; however, there were a few geographical differences. Further comprehensive studies in other parts of country are required to make a more reliable source of reference for clinicians and surgeons for evaluating and managing their patients more properly.
