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

BACKGROUND Numb chin syndrome is a rare and under diagnosed neuropathy of the inferior alveolar branch of the trigeminal nerve usually causing a lower lip and chin anesthesia or paresthesia. The syndrome is commonly associated with broad-spectrum malignant and non-malignant conditions. CASE REPORT Here we report a case of a 30-year-old male who presented with numb chin syndrome in the form of jaw pain, paresthesia, and hypoesthesia of the mental area as the presenting symptoms of acute of myeloid leukemia with t(8;21) treated with (3+7) protocol (3 days anthracycline+7 days cytarabine). The pain and paresthesia improved but hypothesia persisted. CONCLUSIONS Acute myeloid leukemia is one of the most serious causes of numb chin syndrome which should not be overlooked.
