Application of Diode Laser in Excision of a Peripheral Ameloblastoma - A Case Report.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Rationale: Occurrence of peripheral ameloblastoma (PA) is rare. Excision of PA by diode laser is infrequent. Patient Concerns: A 27-year-old female patient presented with an asymptomatic mass on the retromolar trigone for the past one year. Diagnosis: Incisional biopsy showed aggressive PA. Treatment: The lesion was excised using a diode laser under local anaesthesia. The excised specimen revealed histopathological features of the acanthomatous variant of PA. Outcomes: The patient was followed up for two years without any evidence of recurrence. Take-Away Lessons: Diode laser is an acceptable alternative to conventional scalpel excision for intraoral soft tissue lesions, whereas, in the case of PA, it proves to be no exception.
