Myofibromas of the jawbones in pediatric patients. A clinicopathological study.

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
backgroundMyofibromas are infrequent neoplasms that rarely occur in the jawbones. The aim of this study is to present a series of cases of these tumors affecting the jawbones in pediatric patients, as well as to describe their diagnostic methodology and therapeutic approach. MATERIAL AND
methodsretrospective study of a series of myofibromas of the jawbones diagnosed and treated in a single medical institution in Mexico City from 2002-2022.
resultsThere were 14 cases with a median age of 6.5 years (IQR:1-12). Mandible was affected in 8 cases (57.1%), maxilla in 5 (35.8%) and only one case (7.1%) occurred in both jaws. Microscopically, the lesions were composed predominantly by spindle cells, as well as stellate and sometimes pleomorphic in shape, most of which were positive for smooth muscle actin. All cases were treated with complete excision of the lesion and only one presented recurrence.
conclusionsOnce the diagnosis is confirmed and other spindle cell neoplasms have been excluded, resection with free margins represents the treatment of choice.
