Intraosseous mucoepidermoid carcinoma of mandible: a rare case presentation and literature review.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Intraosseous mucoepidermoid carcinoma (IMC) is an atypical salivary gland neoplasm commonly seen in middle-aged adults. Their presentation in young individuals below the age group of 20 years is sporadic. Treatment modality mainly includes radical surgical resection for malignant tumours. There were only 13 reported cases of IMC of mandible below the age of 20 years in the English literature. All the reported cases were only managed with wide resection and radiotherapy. Surgical resection leads to loss of form and function in the young population, decreasing their morale. Hence, reconstruction should be mandated in young individuals for restoring function and aesthetics. We present a case of IMC of the mandible in a young female individual resected and reconstructed with a free fibula bone graft. Satisfactory healing is elicited with no recurrence at the 2-year follow-up period.
