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

backgroundSclerosing odontogenic carcinoma is a rare primary intraosseous neoplasm that was featured recently as a single entity in the World Health Organization classification of Head and Neck Tumors 2017, with only 14 cases published to date. The biological characteristics of sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma remain indistinct because of its rarity; however, it appears to be locally aggressive, with no regional or distant metastasis reported to date. CASE SUMMARY: We reported a case of sclerosing odontogenic carcinoma of the maxilla in a 62-year-old woman, who presented with an indolent right palatal swelling, which progressively increased in size over 7 years. Right subtotal maxillectomy with surgical margins of approximately 1.5 cm was performed. The patient remained disease free for 4 years following the ablation surgery. Diagnostic workups, treatment, and therapeutic outcomes were discussed.

conclusionMore cases are needed to further characterize this entity, understand its biological behavior, and justify the treatment protocols. Resection with wide margins of approximately 1.0 to 1.5 cm is proposed, while neck dissection, post-operative radiotherapy, or chemotherapy are deemed unnecessary.
