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

The purpose of this study was to summarize the currently published cases of clear cell odontogenic carcinoma (CCOC). The PubMed and Springer databases were used to collect available reports, searching for 'clear cell odontogenic carcinoma', 'CCOC', or 'clear cell ameloblastoma'. The search resulted in 75 reports detailing 107 cases between 1985 and 2018. Clinically the tumor manifests as a swelling in the posterior mandible (n=46), anterior mandible (n=33), and maxilla (n=28). Radiological analysis of 85 cases typically showed a poorly defined expansive radiolucency (n=83). Of the 70 patients with symptoms reported, 44 specified a swelling, 11 tooth mobility, seven gingival/periodontal issues, five numbness, and three decreased jaw opening. One patient presented with a neck mass. The duration of symptoms prior to seeking care was specified for 52 patients: 2 months to 1 year for 34 patients, 1-2 years for seven, 2-4 years for two, 4-7 years for six, and 7-12 years for three. The incidence of recurrence appeared to be 38 of the 88 cases where recurrence was reported. CCOC can be distinguished from other oral cancers by its distinctive histology and immunohistochemical characteristics and less aggressive behavior. Currently, treatment should be early and aggressive resection with clear surgical margins and long-term follow-up. The overall goal is to collect a cohort of patients.
