Critical assessment of the latest classification of jaw cysts proposed by the World Health Organization (2017).
Review in Journal of clinical and experimental dentistry, 2021. 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 World Health Organization Classification of Head and Neck Tumors was published in January 2017, and includes a classification of odontogenic tumors and odontogenic cysts. The present review assesses the changes made in this new classification in relation to odontogenic and non-odontogenic jaw cysts. MATERIAL AND
methodsAn electronic search was conducted in the Cochrane Library, PubMed-MEDLINE and Scopus databases using the search terms: "odontogenic cyst" "WHO classification" "update". Studies written in English and published between January 2005 and April 2020 with a high level of scientific evidence were included, while studies not published in English, epidemiological studies, and studies with a low level of scientific evidence were excluded.
resultsThe initial search identified 311 articles, and after the deletion of duplicates, 7 studies were selected for full-text assessment. After excluding two studies that failed to provide relevant information and had a low level of scientific evidence, 5 articles were finally included and stratified according to their level of scientific evidence based on the SORT (Strength of Recommendation Taxonomy) criteria.
conclusionsThe incorporation of odontogenic and non-odontogenic cysts to the head and neck tumors classification underscores the recognition of the WHO of these important disorders of the jaws. Based on the current evidence, there is controversy as to whether odontogenic keratocysts should be regarded as cystic lesions or as neoplasms, though there is no such controversy in relation to calcifying odontogenic cysts. On the other hand, orthokeratinized odontogenic cysts have been included in the classification as a single entity differentiated from odontogenic keratocysts, while residual cysts have been removed from the classification.
