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

Unerupted teeth in dogs are fairly common and may develop an odontogenic cyst that causes destruction of the surrounding bone and affect adjacent teeth. We analyzed histological reports of cysts associated with unerupted teeth in a large population of dogs. Medical records and histopathological results of cysts associated with unerupted teeth were evaluated from all dogs treated at a private referral veterinary dental clinic over a 10-year period (2012-2022). A total of 192 dogs with 279 cysts associated with one or more unerupted teeth were included in the study. Brachycephalic breeds were overrepresented. The most affected were Tibetan Spaniels with 58 dogs (30%) and Boxers with 48 dogs (25%). The most common affected tooth was the mandibular first premolar tooth with 238 (84%) cysts. Of the total of 279 cysts, 208 (75%) were histopathologically examined. None of the cysts examined contained malignant changes. Based on these 208 cysts, the probability of finding a cyst with malignant changes in a population of dogs is 0-1.4% (confidence interval 95%).
