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

introductionAdenoid ameloblastoma is a rare benign odontogenic tumor that favors a slight predilection for male patients, fourth and fifth decades of life, and posterior regions of the jaws. To date, less than 40 cases have been reported in the English language literature. The radiographic aspects of adenoid ameloblastoma vary from unilocular and well-defined lesions to diffuse and multilocular lesions. Most of the lesions exhibit a radiolucent image and are usually large, with a mean size of 3.5 cm. Microscopically, pseudoductal structures composed of columnar cells in a palisaded arrangement formed from the parenchyma of the tumor were observed. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe a case of adenoid ameloblastoma in a 54-year-old woman, who presented with no symptoms. Panoramic radiography showed a well-circumscribed, unilocular radiolucency in the left posterior maxilla.

conclusionAs odontogenic tumors are rare, some entities are infrequently encountered, making the diagnosis more difficult. Clinicians, oral and maxillofacial surgeons and oral pathologists should be familiar with the adenoid ameloblastoma and its differential diagnosis for accurate diagnosis and management.
