Bridging the gap - Establishing a dental-oncology service in a cancer centre.
Article in Supportive care in cancer : official journal of the Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Dental disease remains the most common non-communicable disease worldwide. It predisposes patients to significant morbidities following bone modifying agents or radiation therapy to the head and neck. Preventative dental regimes effectively reduce the risk of both medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) and osteoradionecrosis (ORN) in these patients. Co-ordination of routine dental care as a component of mainstream oncology treatment optimises long term outcomes for oncology patients. This case series offers insights into patient, institutional and social difficulties that challenge the dental-oncology interface. These obstacles and subsequent resolutions experienced whilst establishing a dental-oncology service in a cancer centre highlight the importance of effective multidisciplinary lead care for oncology patients. It reinforces the need for structured, supported dental pathways for these oncology patients.
