From Innocuous to Aggressive: A Case of Odontogenic Keratocyst Transforming to Unicystic Ameloblastoma.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Odontogenic keratocysts are known for their aggressive and recurrent nature. Clinically and radiographically distinguishing between ameloblastoma and odontogenic keratocysts can be challenging due to their similar locations, age of affected patients, and multilocular appearance. Ameloblastomas co-occurring with odontogenic cysts or other odontogenic lesions have been documented as combined lesions. However, unique incidences of odontogenic keratocysts showing changes of unicystic ameloblastomas are scarce, especially a large aggressive lesion occurring in the mandible extending from the molar-to-molar tooth region in a young patient as presented in this case. This transformation is rare and intriguing and warrants detailed exploration and documentation. Considering the rarity of the lesion, this case highlights the importance of considering the aggressive nature of the lesion and its transformation into ameloblastoma, cautioning the surgeon to have a long-term follow-up to evaluate recurrence and emphasizing the regeneration and restoration of quality of life in young patients.
