The Curious Case of a 'Maverick' Cementoblastoma!
Article in Journal of maxillofacial and oral surgery, 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
Introduction: The Cementoblastoma is a benign ectomesenchymal odontogenic neoplasm of the jaw, arising from an exuberant production of cemental tissue continuous with the roots of teeth (usually mandibular posteriors), resulting in a calcified mass adherent with the root apices. Case Presentation: A curious case of a large Cementoblastoma, the size and shape of a ping pong ball, is presented, the first of its kind ever reported to involve the internal / medial / lingual aspect of the mandible, and presenting with unusual and deviant features. Discussion & Conclusion: The Cementoblastoma is usually associated with certain inherent and pathognomonic features, making it rather straightforward to identify and diagnose. Strikingly uncharacteristic clinical, radiographic and histologic attributes presented in this case, made this 'out of the ordinary' and 'Maverick'-like Cementoblastoma, arduous to diagnose, nevertheless, making it an interesting, informative and curious Case Study. This report has brought to light for the first time, several new facets of the Cementoblastoma.
