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

Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic auto-immune disease associated with cell-mediated immunologic dysfunction whose etiology remains unknown. Malignant transformation into squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the most feared complication of OLP. It is actually recognized as a potentially malignant disorder with an unspecified risk of transformation, and it is suggested to closely monitor diagnosed patients. In this paper, we discuss the case of a 62-year-old female patient, a non-smoker, and non-drinker, who initially presented with painful erosive lesions on the edentulous mandibular ridge, the buccal mucosa, and the floor of the mouth. Clinical and histological findings led to the diagnosis of OLP with no signs of oral epithelial dysplasia. Malignant transformation into SCC was reported eight months after the first presentation.
