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

Neurofibroma are rare occurrences in the oral cavity with the tongue as the most common location in the oral cavity being affected by neurofibroma. Neurofibroma are usually asymptomatic, irregular tissue masses of benign nature with a small rate of malignant conversion. Recurrence rates are also low in the neurofibromas of the oral cavity. It is rare in India with only a few cases reported to date. Hence, we report this case of a 63-year-old female with a tissue mass present on the right side of her tongue for the last five years, with a progressive nature. The mass was associated with pain during chewing food for the last three months. She was managed by a wide local incision and was reported well recovering at a three-month follow-up.
