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
The aim of the present study was to analyze the histopathological features of Paget's disease of the jaws observed in a series comprising 31 cases. The study comprised all cases of Paget's disease of the jaws filed in the archives of the Surgical Pathology Laboratory of the Oral Pathology Department, School of Dentistry, University of Buenos Aires, between 1960 and 2018. Their microscopic features were evaluated, and available clinical data and radiographic studies were analyzed. Paget's disease of the jaws accounted for 0.05% of retrieved oral-maxillofacial pathologies. Microscopically, all cases showed lamellar bone trabeculae with the characteristic mosaic pattern. Twenty cases (64%) showed osteoblastic-osteoclastic activity, and all showed areas of necrosis. Cemento-osseous trabeculae were observed in 15 cases (48%), and cementicles were observed in 13 (42%). Osteomyelitis was seen in 11 cases (35%), all of which showed cemento-osseous trabeculae with a mosaic structure, sclerosis and necrosis, and chronic inflammation with abscess formation. Mean age was 61 years (44-85 years); 19 cases were women. Localization was the maxilla in 13 cases (42%), and the disease involved other skeletal bones in five cases. To our knowledge, this is the largest series of Paget's disease of the jaws reported to date. Paget's disease is infrequent in the jaws and has distinct histopathological features that not only differ from those observed at other skeletal sites but also require differential diagnosis from other pathologies affecting the jaws exclusively.
