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

objectivesThe aim of this study was to compare the expression of receptor-activated nuclear factor kappa B (RANK) with its ligand (RANKL) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) in solid/multicystic ameloblastomas (ABs) and keratocystic odontogenic tumors (KOTs). MATERIALS AND

methodsThe expression of MMP2, RANK, and RANKL molecules was evaluated in 13 ABs and 14 KOTs by immunohistochemistry. The expressions were calculated in the odontogenic epithelial cells as well as the stromal cells.

resultsOdontogenic epithelia of AB expressed MMP2, RANK, and RANKL significantly higher than that of KOTs (

conclusionInvasive biological and osteolytic behaviors of both lesions were evaluated in this study. It was found to be more in AB than keratocystic odontogenic. A significant expression of MMP2, RANK, and RANKL in both KOTs associated with microcyst and plexiform type AB as well.
