Oral irritation fibroma associated with the pathological migration of a primary tooth.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
We report the case of a 3-year-old girl referred to our hospital dentistry service, from a public health centre, due to a 4-week-old swelling in the area of the hard palate, causing displacement of the deciduous tooth and the appearance of an interincisal diastema. The clinical characteristics suggested the possibility of a reactive fibroma and we decided to intervene surgically by means of an excisional biopsy. Histology confirmed the presumptive diagnosis. Prompt referral and early surgical care spontaneously favoured both repositioning of the displaced primary tooth and closure of the diastema. This is an infrequent lesion in paediatric patients.
