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

The soft tissues of the oral cavity are constantly subjected to microtrauma due to various factors. The gingiva in particular reacts to these beyond a point resulting in reactive hyperplastic lesions. Amongst these, the pyogenic granuloma and the peripheral ossifying fibroma are the most common clinical entities. Since they have a similar clinical presentation but diverse histomorphologic illustrations, it was advocated that there exists an interrelation between these two reactive fibrous overgrowths. Hence, this paper is intended to abolish the quandary in diagnosing peripheral ossifying fibroma and pyogenic granuloma.
