Excision of Pyogenic Granuloma (PG) With Diode Laser on the Lower Lip in an Unusual Location: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a tumor with regular growth expressed usually in the oral cavity, expressing characteristics of a non-neoplastic lesion. The first treatment option is surgical excision, which can be proceeded with surgical diode lasers (940 nm). This case report focuses on the surgical excision of a PG located in the lower lip using diode lasers. Post-operative follow-up of 6 months demonstrated adequate healing without esthetical compromise and no lesion recurrence, showing that diode lasers can be a safe and effective alternative for PG removal.
