Intraosseous Neurofibroma of Mandible in a 5-Year-Old: A Rare Case Report and Review of Literature.
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Neurofibromas are benign tumours originating from the peripheral nerve sheath mainly the endoneurium. The lesion can occur in a solitary form or as multiple tumours associated with neurofibromatosis (NF-1), which is also known as von Recklinghausen's disease. Intraosseous neurofibromas are exceedingly rare with only less than 50 cases reported in the literature. We report a case of paediatric neurofibroma of the mandible which is even more rare with only 9 cases reported so far. Hence, systematic and thorough investigations are mandatory to correctly diagnose and plan appropriate treatment for intraosseous neurofibroma because of the rarity of the lesion in the paediatric age group. The clinical presentations, diagnostic challenges and treatment plan with a thorough review of literature have been addressed in this case report. The purpose of this paper is to present a case of pediatric intraosseous neurofibroma and to stress the importance of considering such a rare lesion in the differential diagnosis of jaw lesions, especially in children to reduce functional and aesthetic morbidity.
