Ameloblastic Fibrosarcoma of the Jaw: Case Report, Genetic Profiling, and Literature Review.
Article in Case reports in oncology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ameloblastic fibrosarcoma (AFS) is considered a malignant progression resulting from dysplastic changes in an ameloblastic fibroma (AF). Both tumors are extremely rare, with only a few cases reported in the scientific literature. Notably, BRAF mutations have been identified in ameloblastomas, suggesting a connection between ameloblastic morphology and BRAF mutations, as AF is believed to be the precursor neoplasm leading to AFS. In this study, we present a case of AFS in a 25-year-old male. The tumor tissue underwent molecular analysis, specifically next-generation sequencing (NGS) using the Oncomine Comprehensive Assay v3 System. The analysis revealed pathogenic mutations in TP53 and RB genes, as well as copy number gains in NTRK1, MDM4, and BRAF. Additionally, we provide a summary of the literature's findings from the analysis of 107 previously reported AFS cases. Our findings suggest the existence of a molecularly distinct subtype, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive molecular testing for these patients.
