A Large Irritation Fibroma of the Hard Palate: A Rare Clinical Entity.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
An irritative fibroma of the oral cavity can be defined as a benign tumor of connective tissue. They usually occur in the oral cavity, with the most common sites being the buccal mucosa and tongue. However, reported cases over the hard palate are few. Irritant or reactive fibromas are brought upon by recurrent, mildly intense stimulation of the oral mucosa. This can be because of repeated tobacco chewing, ill-fitted dentures, intentional or unintentional biting, sharp teeth, and so on. Because, clinically, fibromas resemble the features of other benign or reactive tumors, histological examination is required for the appropriate management of the same. Here, we describe a case of an irritative fibroma of the hard palate in a 61-year-old female. The patient had a history of betel nut and tobacco chewing for 30 years. The patient was evaluated and underwent complete excision for the same. The base of the lesion was cauterized to prevent recurrence.
