A Case Series Study of Solitary Mucosal Neuroma-Rare Cases of Benign Peripheral Neurogenic Tumours.

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
Aim/objective: Mucosal neuroma (MN) is a benign peripheral nerve tumour that usually occurs as a symptom of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2B (MEN2B) (MEN2B-associated MN). MN that is not associated with MEN2B is termed solitary mucosal neuroma (SMN). We present a case of SMN in the upper gingiva and examine previously reported cases. Methods: The study included nine patients (eight from seven articles and one from this study) with SMN. Age of onset, sex, disease duration, tumour site, clinical findings including subjective symptoms, diagnostic method, treatment, prognosis and relationship with MEN2B were investigated in these nine patients. Results and conclusion: SMN is thought to be caused by the overproduction of nerve growth factors due to trauma or chronic continuous stimulation, whereas MEN2B-associated MN is caused by GNDF-induced hyperplasia. Considering the pathogenesis of their development, both diseases exhibit hyperplasia of the nerve fibre bundles and have the same histological type of hypertrophy. MNs (SMN and MEN2B-induced MN) must be differentiated from benign peripheral neurogenic tumours. Morphological recognition and immunohistopathological analyses make this differentiation possible.
