Double mandible coronoid process: a very unusual feature.

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
purposeThe double coronoid process (DCP) is a very unusual feature in patient. The literature, which briefly describes just only one case. Being this a very unusual feature, the aim of the paper is to describe the finding, discuss the anatomic, radiological, and clinical characteristics of a DCP.
methodsA 61-year-old-woman with no significant medical history, extraoral and intraoral examination was unremarkable. Following panoramic radiography (PR) for assessment of periodontal support and pre-implant planning suspicious radiopaque area in the mandibular notch on the left side was observed. Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were subsequently performed.
resultsNo signs and symptoms of syndromes or medical records with a relevant contribution to the DCP existence and the patient denied any type of facial trauma. CBCT image showed the structure found on the PR was indeed a DCP and it was not superimposed on the mandibular notch area, MRI was performed to investigate soft tissue components and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) or other alterations.
conclusionDPC is extremely rare with the only case reported in the literature within the same comparison parameters. In this case images revealed the muscles, articular surfaces and articular disc were well preserved, and no other alterations were found.
