A systematic review on odontogenic cysts and tumours.
Review in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: There are still certain gaps in the research that need to be filled despite the fact that numerous studies have looked into the transformation of odontogenic cysts into neoplastic lesions. To identify pertinent research that had been published and to synthesise the available data and provide an overview of the current body of knowledge, this review also sought to do so. Materials and Methods: Adopting the Preferred Reporting Items of Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a search strategy was implemented across several online databases to search for relevant articles as per the defined selection criterion. Results: After the search strategy was complete, 31 studies were chosen. Men tended to have more cancer than women. Swelling and discomfort were the primary pathology-related complaints. Although two cases were not detailed, radiologically, well-defined and poorly defined borders were reported in 18 and 11 participants, respectively. Squamous cell carcinoma with good differentiation ( Conclusion: Prompt surgical follow-ups and cautious excision of odontogenic cysts are essential to avoiding neoplastic change and recurrence. Future research is required to look at possible reasons why odontogenic cysts can convert neoplastically.
