Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in the retromolar region of an 8-year-old child: A rare finding.
Article in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the oral cavity is an extremely rare finding. The etiology and pathogenesis of IMT is controversial and unclear. The tumor requires complete surgical excision and continuous monitoring of clinical consequences. The present article describes the clinical, histological, operative and immunohistochemical features of a case of IMT in the mandibular retromolar region of an 8-year-old male. Histologically, the lesion shows myofibroblastic spindle cell proliferations with infiltrative margins in an inflammatory background. Immunohistochemically, the myofibroblastic spindle cells in the present case were positive for α-smooth muscle actin and CD68 due to which the diagnosis of IMT was confirmed.
