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

Odontoameloblastoma (OA) is an uncommon mixed odontogenic tumor that contains an ameloblastomatous component and odontoma-like elements, usually seen to occur in the mandible of younger patients. Radiographically, the tumor shows central destruction of bone with extension of cortical plates and calcified structures which have the radiopacity of tooth structure. These may resemble miniature teeth similar to a compound odontoma or occur as large masses of calcified material similar to a complex odontoma. We report a case of a 17-year-old male with a hard solitary, diffuse swelling over the right lower third of the face for 8 months. Histopathological sections of tumor mass showed diverse and characteristic features of ameloblastoma along with odontogenic epithelium proliferation in unrestrained manner so as to resemble developing tooth bud in stages of morphodifferentiation, apposition and calcification. A diagnosis of OA was made. Hemimandibulectomy was performed on the patient and he remains disease free till today.
