Combined treatment of dexamethasone mouthwash and low-level laser therapy in the management of aphthous-like ulcers caused by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07641725 (Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Clobetasol Propionate 0.05% and Photobiomodulation in the Management of Oral Lesions in Patients With Pemphigus Vulgaris.), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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.

Abstract
A case of major aphthous-like ulcer was described in a 50-year-old patient. The patient showed the main signs of aphthous stomatitis painful ulcer, 1-2 cm in diameter, located on the ventral of the tongue, buccal mucosa, and the palate. These ulcers persisted for more than 3 weeks. The patient's self-administration of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) was suggested as the leading cause of aphthous-like ulcers in this case. ulcers were treated with dexamethasone mouthwash and low-level laser therapy (LLLT).
