Coexistence of a Nasopalatine Duct Cyst and Radicular Cyst: A Unique Clinical Presentation.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
This study discusses a case of coexistence of two distinct cysts, a nasopalatine duct cyst (NPDC) and a radicular cyst, within the anterior region of the maxilla. NPDC is a prevalent non-odontogenic developmental cyst, while radicular cysts are commonly found in odontogenic inflammatory cysts. The clinical and radiographic characteristics of these cysts are explored, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. In this case, a 51-year-old male patient presented with swelling and pain in the maxillary anterior region. Radiographic examinations revealed a heart-shaped radiolucent lesion extending from tooth 13 to 23, associated with the NPDC, and a separate radicular cyst. Surgical enucleation and tooth extraction were performed as the treatment of choice. This unique case underscores the significance of meticulous radiographic assessment to detect multiple cystic lesions within the same area.
