Facilitating the removal of a foreign body in the tongue by intraoperative ultrasound guidance: A case report.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2023. 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
The presence of soft tissue foreign bodies (FBs) presents a substantial concern due to their potential to induce both acute and chronic pain as well as tissue irritation. This case report documents the admission of a 25-year-old female with a history of bur fractures during endodontic treatment, accompanied by signs of infection. The clinical examination and radiographic assessment revealed an embedded foreign body within her tongue. The surgical procedure was informed by repeated ultrasound scans through the incision, facilitating precise targeting. Intraoperative ultrasound enables the accurate detection of submucosal foreign bodies in dynamic tissues like the tongue and facilitates focused and image-guided dissection, thereby decreasing surgical trauma to the delicate soft tissues.
