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

introduction and importanceOdontogenic lesions composed of two or more separate odontogenic cysts are uncommon. The calcifying odontogenic cyst (COC) and odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) are odontogenic cysts that exhibit some neoplastic features. Concurrence of these lesions is extremely rare. We report a rare case of COC combined with OKC in a patient and review the relevant literature systemically. CASE PRESENTATION: In this article, we present a case report of an 18-year-old boy patient with no medical history whose chief complaint was facial asymmetry. A painless swelling in the right side of the posterior mandible was observed. Histopathological and radiographic investigations revealed a combined odontogenic lesion composed of inflamed OKC with COC. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Long-lasting debates on the true nature of OKC and COC, whether cystic or neoplastic, has been existed so far. Their genetic-derived mechanisms can justify the concurrent occurrence of these cysts in a patient. The treatment plan for this lesion included decompression followed by enucleation, curettage, and application of Carnoy's solution.

conclusionWe reported a rare case of an inflamed OKC with COC-like features. Based on the literature, the coincidence of these two odontogenic cysts has been reported for the third time here.
