Dento-osseous anomalies in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis: A follow-up study.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveThe aim of this longitudinal study was to characterize the dento-osseous phenotype of eleven familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients and twenty-two family members from four Brazilian families who were followed over nine years and to investigate adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene variants using a targeted next-generation sequencing approach. MATERIALS AND
methodsMedical and dental history, oral examination, and panoramic radiography were performed to diagnose and follow up the dento-osseous anomalies. The anomalies were evaluated following the validated diagnostic tool dental panoramic radiographic score (DPRS), a system developed for high-risk FAP patients. Patients diagnosed with dento-osseous anomalies underwent cone-beam computed tomography. For genetic analysis, DNA was isolated from patients' saliva.
resultsDento-osseous anomalies were identified in ten of the eleven FAP patients by panoramic radiograph evaluation. DPRS ≥ 7 (significant changes) was found in 81.8% (9/11) of FAP patients. The follow-up showed an increase in osseous jaw lesions in two young patients during adolescence. Dento-osseous anomalies were not found in non-FAP patients. A novel heterozygous nonsense pathogenic variant in APC exon 5 (c.481C > T; p.Gln161*) was identified in family 2, and a heterozygous splice-site pathogenic variant was identified in family 1 (c.532-1G > A).
conclusionOur study expands the mutation spectrum of the APC gene and provides evidence that dento-osseous screening by imaging is a putative tool for early diagnosis of FAP. Also, the detection of dento-osseous anomalies in young patients with increasing osseous lesions during adolescence highlights the need for dental follow-up of high-risk FAP children. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Dental radiographs are important for the screening and the follow-up of dento-osseous anomalies associated with FAP. It can also contribute to the early diagnosis of the disease.
