Cervicofacial Necrotizing Fasciitis Originating From Odontogenic Infections: A Report of Two Cases.
Article in Cureus, 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
Cervicofacial necrotizing fasciitis (CNF) is infrequently reported to originate from odontogenic infections. Even with such rarity, its development is potentially life-threatening. The current report aims to demonstrate how severe and risky the consequences of odontogenic infections are. This report presents two clinically diagnosed necrotizing fasciitis (NF) cases. The first case is a 33-year-old man suffering diffusing pain upon palpating submandibular regions with necrotic black skin after experiencing red skin and gaseous infiltration. He required skin grafting, post-healing esthetic surgeries. The second case is a 14-year-old girl with malnutrition who displayed evident necrosis in the soft tissue of the cervicofacial region. Bacteriological examinations were done, and intravenous antibiotic treatment was administered to the patient. This case highlights that dental infections are probably found to activate serious complications in certain cases; early clinical diagnosis is extremely essential in such cases. Besides, immediate surgical interference, accompanied by antibiotic therapy, plays a decisive role in treatment success.
