Calcified Maxillary Fibroma in a Patient on Hemodialysis for Seven Years.
Article in European journal of case reports in internal medicine, 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
Background: The presentation of mineral bone disorder (MBD) in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) may vary. Consequently, physicians should be capable of recognising this condition when there is a suspicion of its existence. This case report will describe a calcified maxilla tumour as a manifestation of CKD-MBD. Case description: Initially asymptomatic, a 32-year-old female presented with progressive swelling of the upper left jaw. She had a history of routine haemodialysis. Further laboratory, radiological, and histopathological workup revealed the mass was indeed calcified maxillary fibroma arising from the manifestation of CKD-MBD. Conclusion: This study underscores the significance of clinical comprehension of the broad-spectrum manifestations of CKD-MBD, including an initially asymptomatic mass. In addition, the screening of the patient's biochemical was required to determine the necessity of early intervention and improve the patient's outcome. LEARNING POINTS: The case emphasises the importance of recognising atypical presentations of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD), such as a calcified mass, which are rarely reported but critical for timely intervention.This report underscores the necessity for routine screening for secondary hyperparathyroidism in CKD patients, as early detection can significantly impact patient outcomes.Surgical management of the overlying mass and underlying parathyroid gland hyperplasia should always be considered in the management of the symptomatic CKD-MBD patient.
