Cytomorphological and Cytomorphometric Analysis of Oral Squames in Smokers Using Computer Aided Image Analysis System.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 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
Objective: This study aimed to assess the impact of smoking on oral mucosa and evaluate the role of cytomorphometry in diagnosing and prognosing potentially malignant disorders. Study Design: The study included 75 patients both smokers and non-smokers with and without smoking-related lesions. We measured cellular diameter (CD), nuclear diameter (ND), cellular area (CA) and nuclear area (NA) of buccal mucosa squames using PAP stain and image analysis software (Pixel Pro by Labo Med). Results: Smokers, regardless of lesion presence showed increased ND, decreased CD, increased NA and decreased CA compared to non-smokers. ANOVA and t-tests indicated significant differences ( Conclusion: Exfoliative cytology proves to be a simple, fast and cost-effective method for screening potentially malignant disorders of the oral cavity.
