Efficiency of B-RAF-/MEK-inhibitors in B-RAF mutated Ameloblastoma: Case report and review of literature.
Article in Heliyon, 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
Background: Ameloblastoma is a benign but locally invasive and aggressive odontogenic tumor harboring activating Case presentation: Neoadjuvant therapy with Dabrafenib and Trametinib was given to a 42-year-old male patient with recurrent ameloblastoma of the right mandible with a BRAF V600E mutation for 18 months. The patient manifested an excellent response to the therapy with remarkable reduction in tumor size from 72.6 mm to 55.9 mm. Histopathologically, the tumor underwent significant degenerative changes with only a few sparse vital residuals revealing 0 % Ki67 proliferative index. Conclusions: Neoadjuvant therapy with BRAF-inhibitors or BRAF-MEK-inhibitors is an effective means to reduce the size of mandibulary ameloblastomas. We propose the consideration of neoadjuvant therapy in future treatment modalities to minimize post-surgical morbidity and facial deformations.
