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

Many people were affected by COVID-19 in its severe form. Some intercurrences are still emerging. We here report two cases of COVID-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (CRONJ). Two retrospective cases were admitted into Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran with suspected CRONJ. One patient escaped from hospital while the other showed a positive result after our proposed treatment. A new aftermath to COVID-19 infections is emerging. Maxillofacial and orthopedic surgeons should be aware of this situation. CRONJ should be on the suspect list in patients with COVID-19. Measures that are useful in the treatment carried out, as well as some measures recommended in the literature, were discussed. Surgical treatment of CRONJ appears to be an effective alternative, especially in the more aggressive cases.
