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

purposeThis study aimed to evaluate odontogenic keratocysts associated with basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS) using computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resornance imaging (MRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and compare them with sporadic cases. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis study investigated 17 outpatients who underwent panoramic radiography, CT, and MRI between August 2012 and January 2021. Five of these patients had BCNS had 16 odontogenic keratocysts, for which the authors recorded detailed findings. DWI analysis compared the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of odontogenic keratocysts in patients with BCNS and sporadic cases. The Mann-Whitney test was used to analyse bivariate statistics.

resultsPatients with BCNS had an average of 3.2 lesions in the jaw. On DWI, the ADC value ranged from 0.58 to 2.66 × 10

conclusionThis study presented detailed imaging findings of odontogenic keratocysts in patients with BCNS. Furthermore, the authors revealed a wide range of ADC values for BCNS-associated odontogenic keratocysts.
