Not All Chubby Cheeks Are Cute: A Case of Cherubism.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The growth of the jaw occurs painlessly in cherubism, a rare genetic disorder where normal bone is replaced by fibrous tissue and undeveloped bone. Usually running in families, this non-cancerous genetic condition naturally reaches a limit and stops growing. The main characteristic is the aberrant growth of osseous and fibrous tissue in the maxilla and mandible, which is frequently seen in children. Cherubism is inherited autosomal dominantly, though reports have included individuals without a family history. The disorder has specific radiographic and histological features that drastically affect facial appearance. This article provides a thorough case study of a male 16-year-old with cherubism, emphasizing management techniques and clinical and radiological results. Radiological imaging is essential for diagnosis and management because it can identify the distinctive features of cherubism and the treatment implications associated with it.
