The World Health Organization classification of odontogenic and maxillofacial bone tumors: An appraisal.
Review in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 21 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Classification is the process of grouping similar entities under one category for the ease of their comprehension and better handling. Medical classification dates back to the days of William Farr who is credited with the development of a nosology, which later served as the forerunner for the modern-day disease classification by ICD. The WHO system of classification is a time-honoured system that has prevailed from decades together and is under constant evolution. The classification of odontogenic tumours was first formulated by Pierre Paul Broca and has undergone several transformations over years. Though the earlier classifications and their modifications by several authors and even by the WHO appeared to be fitting for their time, the latest edition of WHO classification of odontogenic and maxillofacial bone tumours neither seems to be complete nor perfect, even at the present context. It is unfortunate that even with the advancement of molecular biology, the present WHO classification on Odontogenic and Maxillofacial bone tumours, fails to serve as a 'reference standard' in the true sense of the term. This article highlights the limitations of the current classification with constructive criticism that may help in further improvement.
