1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesOsteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ) is a frequent side effect of antiresorptive (AR) drugs used in oncology. MRONJ may have endodontic consequences, as reported in this clinical case. MATERIAL AND

methodsA 64-year-old woman being treated with antiresorptive (AR) drugs targeting bone metastasis of a primitive breast cancer consulted at the dental service of Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital. She first experienced symptomatic apical periodontitis followed by symptomatic irreversible pulpitis, which were initially explained as resulting from occlusal trauma. Despite endodontic treatment, exacerbation of the symptomatology was noted. MRONJ was suspected, and the affected tooth was extracted.

resultsThe presence of necrotic bone during the surgery confirmed the diagnosis. Surgical treatment led to complete healing and total disappearance of clinical and radiological signs at 4 months.

conclusionsMRONJ can induce alterations in adjacent tooth vascularization and secondary pulpal disease. Early diagnosis is difficult because early-stage MRONJ occurs without clear radiographic signs.
