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

Background: Aggressive benign odontogenic neoplasms are a group of lesions that have the potential to grow to an enormous size resulting in bony deformities, locally aggressive behavior and have high recurrence rate. Ameloblastomas, keratocystic odontogenic tumors, etc., are included under this group of lesions. Treatment of these lesions is challenging owing to their particular characteristics including high recurrence rate, locally aggressive behavior, etc. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 40 patients who had undergone enucleation and open packing as treatment for benign aggressive neoplasms in the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery. Results: In the study, all the cases were followed up for a minimum of 5 years clinically and radiographically. Satisfactory bone healing was noted with no evidence of recurrence in all cases. Conclusion: Enucleation followed by open packing with iodoform is an excellent conservative modality with proven minimal rate of recurrences in 5-year period.
