1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThe nonexposed variant of antiresorptive agent-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (ARONJ) presents with nonspecific clinical findings. The diagnosis of nonexposed ARONJ poses a critical challenge, and there is little evidence regarding its treatment and outcomes. This study aimed to examine the clinical outcomes in patients with nonexposed antiresorptive agent-related osteomyelitis of the jaw (AROMJ). The terms ARONJ and AROMJ were used separately in this study. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe enrolled patients with nonexposed AROMJ (osteomyelitis of the jaw without bone exposure associated with antiresorptive agents) with partial reference to an existing position paper on ARONJ. The initiating event of osteomyelitis was limited to periodontitis. Based on the findings of bone scintigraphy, panoramic radiography, computed tomography, and histopathological examination, we also used the hierarchical diagnostic criteria (HDC) for osteomyelitis of the jaw.

resultsThere were 58 confirmed cases of nonexposed AROMJ based on the HDC. All patients had sufficient clinical findings to be diagnosed with nonexposed AROMJ as osteomyelitis underwent extraction with bone debridement. The healing rate was 93.1% (54/58). Univariable analysis showed a strong association between the healing status and malignant disease, while multivariable analysis showed no strong association between them.

conclusionsThe present study had a relatively large sample size of patients with nonexposed AROMJ. The primary disease in patients with nonexposed AROMJ may not have a strong association with the healed status of the lesion. Based on its high healing rate, extraction with bone debridement in confirmed nonexposed AROMJ may prevent progression.
