Primary xanthoma inferior to the right mandibular third molar and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy.
Article in Imaging science in dentistry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Intraosseous xanthoma of the mandible is a rare benign disorder. A 17-year-old male patient presented with a suspected abscess in the right mandibular third molar, detected on a panoramic radiograph. The patient had no history of systemic or lipid-related metabolic diseases and complained of no specific symptoms or pain. A radiographic examination revealed a heterogeneous radiolucency extending from the apical to the distal aspect of the right mandibular third molar tooth germ. The lesion measured 9×16×24 mm (antero-posterior×mediolateral×supero-inferior) and showed a relatively well-defined, multilocular, foamy appearance with hyperostotic borders spreading to the inferior alveolar nerve canal. After excisional biopsy, a diagnosis of central xanthoma was made. The lesion recurred, and intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy was done near the lesion. For the treatment of xanthoma of the mandible, extensive and delicate surgical treatment under general anesthesia should be considered.
