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

The objective of this study was to review the clinical, radiologic, and histologic aspects of cases of dentigerous cysts metamorphosing into different entities along with comments on the molecular factors involved in the process. A series comprising 8 cases of dentigerous cysts was performed retrospectively along with a comprehensive literature review. Two cases of dentigerous cyst converting into mucous metaplasia were included, out of which one case was transformed into ameloblastoma after a year. The other two cases were reported as acanthomatous and unicystic ameloblastoma, whereas four transitioned to AOT. The complete review of cases and literature with molecular profiling concluded that the lining of dentigerous cysts has the potential for transforming into benign odontogenic tumors. Therefore, a careful clinical and histopathological examination is crucial for the correct diagnosis. Also, a thorough molecular understanding of the cystic lining is required.
