Solitary plasmacytoma of jaw bone: A case report and systematic review of fifty cases from literature.
Article in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. 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
Solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) is a localized form of plasma cell neoplasm where jaw involvement is rare. Distinguishing SPB from other plasma cell neoplasms is critical for treatment and survival. Here, a case of SPB of mandible in an elderly female is reported. Histopathological diagnosis of plasma cell neoplasm was confirmed immunohistochemically with MUM1 and CD138 positivity and multiple myeloma (MM) was ruled out on performing systemic workup. Prognosis of SPB worsens when it transforms into MM. A systematic review was undertaken with the objective to determine the factors affecting conversion of SPB to MM. An electronic search was undertaken with PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science and Science Direct. Fifty cases of SPB of jaw from 29 publications were reviewed. SPB commonly presents as a painless swelling. Radiographically, it is commonly seen as multilocular radiolucency with well-defined borders. Follow-up data showed that nine cases turned into MM in a mean duration of 1 year 9 months and 12 patients died after median disease-free survival of 6 years 9 months. Prognosis of SPB is found to be affected by tumor size (≥5 cm), anaplasia of tumor cells, Ki-67 labeling index, vascularity of the tumor, presence of clonal bone marrow plasma cells, serum immune globulin level, dose of radiotherapy and persistence of M protein after treatment. There is a need to identify prognostic subgroups in SPB based on these factors. Furthermore, studies are necessary for standardization of treatment protocol to halt or prolong the progression of SPB to MM.
