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

purposeIn this study, we prospectively investigated the relationship between bone marrow edema (BME) and odontogenic cysts and explored the possibility of using dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) as an auxiliary tool for the diagnosis of odontogenic cysts.

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 73 patients who underwent the DECT scan and surgery for odontogenic cysts or odontogenic tumors. The virtual noncalcium (VNCa) computed tomography (CT) values and CT values were measured at several sites. The predictor variable was diagnosis, and the other variables included age, sex, and sites. The primary outcome was VNCa CT value. Variables were tested using the chi-square test or the Kruskal-Wallis test. The VNCa CT and CT values were tested using the Scheffe test for multiple comparisons. All variables were analyzed as independent variables affecting the VNCa CT values around the lesion in the multiple regression analysis.

resultThere were 35 men and 38 women. The mean patient age was 50.0 ± 19.5 years (range: 8-86). The VNCa CT values (- 6.2 ± 34.3) around the lesion in patients with RCs were significantly higher than those in patients with dentigerous cysts (- 44.4 ± 28.6) and odontogenic keratocysts (- 67.3 ± 19.5). In multiple regression analysis, the VNCa CT values around the lesion showed a significant positive correlation with histological results (regression coefficient: - 0.605, P < 0.001).

conclusionThe presence of BME is associated with radicular cysts, and DECT can be used as an auxiliary tool for radicular cyst diagnosis.
