Verruciform xanthoma: A case report and a review of recurrent cases.
Article in Journal of oral and maxillofacial pathology : JOMFP. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Oral verruciform xanthoma (VX) is an infrequently encountered benign lesion in the oral cavity. We report an unusual case of VX on the left buccal mucosa presented as a red and white exophytic mass with a greyish white diffuse patch associated with it. A differential diagnosis of papilloma, verrucous carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma associated with leukoplakia was listed. Histopathological findings were suggestive of VX due to the presence of characteristic foam cells in the connective tissue papillae. Immunohistochemical analysis with CD68 showed strong positive immunoreactivity revealing expression of foam cells. After the excisional biopsy, the patient was followed up for the next 6 months with no recurrence. Follow-up is very essential in such a case as the exophytic lesion was associated with a potentially malignant disorder. A short review of reported recurrent cases of verruciform xanthoma is also discussed.
