Clinical anatomy of coronoid foramina of mandible and review of its implications in maxillofacial surgery.
Article in Surgical and radiologic anatomy : SRA, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionA foramen in the coronoid process of the human mandible is a recently identified anatomic variant. The authors in this script aim at presenting a detailed assessment of the coronoid foramen terming it as '''foramen of Nyer' (FN) based on the person first identifying it.
methodsMandibular cone beam computed tomography scans from a total of 2168 patients were evaluated on a prospective and retrospective scale for confirmation of the coronoid foramen after first identification over a panoramic radiograph.
resultsThe coronoid foramen was found and confirmed in 96 (4.4%) patients. This script identifying the coronoid foramina of mandible becomes requisite research as a foundation for further analysis due to the scarcity of literature on this recent find. DISCUSSION: This anatomical-radiological study aims to explore the variant foramina using cone beam computed tomography while determining its prevalence and evaluating its variability in terms of unilateral, bilateral, or gender predilection and propose the significance of this unique anatomic finding. CLINICAL CONSEQUENCES: The lack of information about the presence of such variant foramina may lead to emergence of clinical morbidities such as increased risk of intra osseous hemorrhage and tumor spread due to presence of accessory blood vessels.
