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

Neurofibroma is a benign tumor of the peripheral nervous system affecting Schwann cells as well as neural sheath cells. It is usually considered as a component of Von Recklinghausen's disease, but solitary lesions have also been reported, though not very frequently. It is mostly reported on the skin. In the head and neck region, trigeminal nerve and the cervical nerves are frequently affected; in the oral cavity, tongue is the most commonly affected site. Intra-osseous neurofibromas of the oral cavity are extremely rare and only 22 cases have been reported in the last two decades. The present review is an attempt to know if there is any clinical or radiological feature that can assist in the diagnosis of solitary intra-osseous neurofibroma of the jaws? The literature was reviewed from 01.01.2000 to 05.06.2022 exclusively for case reports, case series, and reviews using the keywords: neurofibroma; neurinoma, maxilla; mandible; jaws, single; solitary; one. Search engines: PubMed Central, Lilac, and Science Direct were used by applying the Boolean operator "OR" and "AND". The review has been submitted for registration in PROSPERO (receipt 340775).
