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

Purpose: Odontogenic keratocysts (OKCs) have high recurrence rates. We aimed to identify recurrence patterns in OKCs and the onset of second primary OKCs in non-syndromic and syndromic patients. Material and Methods: Patients with OKCs reporting to our department from 1998 to 2021 (23 years) were retrospectively evaluated using demographic, clinical (age, sex, location, and size), histopathological, radiographic, and treatment data. All patients were followed-up for > 3 years and evaluated for OKC recurrence. Patients with naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) were evaluated separately. Results: We included 38 and 13 patients in the non-syndromic and syndromic OKC groups, respectively. The recurrence rates were 15.8 and 21.4% in the non-syndromic and syndromic groups, respectively; 8.9% of patients exhibited a second recurrence and 1.8% a third recurrence. No second primary OKCs were observed in the non-syndromic group; 76.9% of patients in the syndromic group developed at least one. Conclusion: We found a higher recurrence rate in patients with NBCCS compared with patients with non-syndromic OKCs (21.4 versus 15.8%). The probability of developing a second primary OKC in patients with NBCCS was higher compared with that in patients with non-syndromic OKCs (76.9 versus 0%). No statistically significant risk factors for OKC recurrence were identified.
