Analyses of odontogenic tumours: the most recent classification proposed by the World Health Organization (2017).
Review in Medicina oral, patologia oral y cirugia bucal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe fourth edition of the ''WHO Classification of Head and Neck Tumours'' was published in January 2017 and includes a classification of odontogenic tumours. This review aims to examine the changes made in this new classification in comparison with the previous classification of 2005. MATERIAL AND
methodsAn electronic search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane databases with the keywords "odontogenic tumor", "WHO classification" and "update". Studies published from January 2009 to April 2019 with a high level of scientific evidence were included, but studies not published in English, epidemiological studies and studies with a low level of evidence were excluded.
resultsThe initial search found 457 articles and after eliminating duplicates, 8 studies were selected for full-text assessment. After excluding 3 epidemiological studies, 5 articles were finally included. These studies were stratified by their level of scientific evidence using SORT criteria (Strength of Recommendation Taxonomy).
conclusionsThe new odontogenic tumour list has been simplified with the objective of improving its role as an international guide for diagnosis. Some changes have been possible thanks to the application of immunohistochemistry and molecular genetic techniques that allow better characterization of certain tumours. Further clinicopathological and molecular studies are needed so that this new classification can be consolidated and/or amended.
