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

purposeTo answer the following clinical research question: "Among patients with multiple basal cell carcinomas (mBCCs), can panoramic radiograph (PaR) facilitate the diagnosis of Gorlin-Goltz syndrome (GGS)?"

methodsThis retrospective study enrolled mBCCs subjects who presented to a German tertiary care center between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2021. The primary predictor was presence of syndromic mBCCs, and the main outcomes were jaw cysts and odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs). Descriptive, bi- and multivariate statistics, diagnostic test evaluation, and number needed to screen (NNS) were computed at α = 95%.

resultsThe sample comprised 527 mBCCs patients (36.1% females; 6.8% GGS; 5.5% OKCs; mean age, 74.5 ± 15.8 years [range, 15-102]). There was a significant association between syndromic mBCCs and jaw cysts (

conclusionsDental screening with the use of PaR for mBCCs patients, especially those aged ≤35 years, or with ≥5 BCCs, or ≥1 high-risk BCCs, may be helpful in detection and identification of GGS through recognition of OKCs.
