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

Tenosynovial giant cell tumor (TGCT) is a benign soft-tissue neoplasm that rarely occurs in the craniofacial region. We report a case of a 27-year-old male who presented to our unit in September 2017 with severe temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain and progressive limitation opening his mouth. Based on clinical and imaging examinations, a well-defined soft tissue lesion was identified within the right infratemporal fossa, causing pressure on the TMJ and the surrounding structures. The lesion was surgically excised through trans-mandibular and endoscopic approaches. Histopathology diagnosis revealed a rare chondroid subset of TGCT. At 18 months follow-up, the patient showed resolution of the jaw pain, good functional and esthetic outcomes, and no evidence of recurrence.
