Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation in the jaws: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Oral and maxillofacial surgery, 2025. 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
purposeThe bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (bpop) is a rare lesion that affects long tubular bones of the feet and hands. Since these lesions are even rarer in the jaws, this systematic review aimed to summarize the up-to-date scientific evidence that can guide health professionals on the diagnosis and treatment of bpop in the jaws.
methodsThis prisma-guided and prospero-registered (crd42024524576) review included case reports with confirmed anatomopathological diagnosis of bpop. The articles were searched in november 2024 in the pubmed, scopus, web of science, scielo, cochrane library, embase, and livivo databases and the academic repositories (proquest, open grey, ibict/bdt, and google scholar) without language or publication date restrictions.
resultsTwelve cases of patients aged between 2 and 72 years (mean 26.5 ± 19.8 years) with equal gender distribution were included. Most lesions were clinically described as nodules or swellings (83.5%), asymptomatic (58.3%), with a mean diameter of 15.8 ± 16.2 mm, located in the mandible (58.3%) and anterior region of the jaws (75%). Radiographically, 66.7% of the lesions had well-defined borders and 91.7% were in continuity with the cortical bone. Histopathological findings revealed pleomorphic chondrocytes (83.3%), hypercellular cartilage (83.3%), and 'blue bone' (50%). All bpop lesions were surgically excised and recurrence was observed in 41.7% of cases with a mean follow-up of 8.8 months.
conclusionSince bpop demonstrates a recurrent behavior, further investigations with long-term follow-up periods are needed to address its malignancy potential.
