Calcifying Epithelial Odontogenic Cysts of the Anterior Maxilla: Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 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
This article is a discussion of two cases of young adults with lesions in similar locations in the anterior maxilla, i.e., the canine-to-canine region, similar history, and comparable radiology. Both cases were histologically diagnosed as calcifying odontogenic cysts. Case 1 was a male aged 28 years with diffuse, firm left malar area facial swelling with pain in associated teeth for a month. Intraorally, he had a gingivo-vestibular swelling also extending palatally in the anterior left maxillary region extending from the distal surface of the left maxillary central incisor to the mesial surface of the left maxillary canine. The overlying mucosa was normal in appearance. The radiograph showed a large unilocular radiolucency in the affected region. The lesion was excised followed by curettage and primary closure. Case 2 was a female aged 25 years with a lumpy mass and pain in associated teeth since one year in the left canine-premolar region with an external swelling in the left ala of the nose region that extended superiorly to the zygomatic arch. The color of the skin as well as the intraoral mucosa was normal, and an orthopantomogram (OPG)revealed a unilocular radiolucency in the left maxillary canine-premolar region with resorption of premolar roots. Treatment included surgical enucleation and bone curettage. Both cases have been in follow-up for about a year and have shown non-incidental healing.
