Recurrent central odontogenic fibroma in a patient with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome: case report and in vitro analysis.
Article in Oral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology and oral radiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveCentral odontogenic fibromas (COF) are rare, benign tumors derived from dental mesenchymal tissue that may occur in the maxilla or mandible. This report describes primary and recurrent COF in the mandible of a patient with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS). STUDY
designA 36-year-old African American male presented with a COF and its recurrence 17 months later. Tissue pieces were obtained from both occurrences with IRB-approved signed consent. Collected tissue pieces were dissected; one portion was formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded, and the other was cultured for the isolation of cell populations from the primary (COdF-1) and recurrent (COdF-1a) tumors. Quantification real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), immunohistochemistry, and DNA sequencing were used for gene and protein analysis of the primary tumor and cell populations.
resultsHistopathologic analysis of the tumor showed sparse odontogenic epithelial cords in fibrous connective tissue, and qRT-PCR analysis of tumor and cell populations (COdF-1 and COdF-1a) detected VIM, CK14, CD34, CD99 and ALPL mRNA expression. Protein expression was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. CD34 expression in primary tissues was higher than in tumor cells due to tumor vascularization. DNA sequencing indicated the patient had PTCH1 mutations.
conclusionsHistopathology, mRNA, and protein expression indicate the rare occurrence of COF in a patient with mutated PTCH1 gene and NBCCS.
