Brown tumors of both jaws as the initial manifestation of a case of parathyroid carcinoma: a case with a 2-year follow-up.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBrown tumors are non-neoplastic giant cell lesions resulting from imbalanced bone metabolism associated with hyperparathyroidism. Although these tumors are infrequently found in the jaw bones, their presence can mimic other bony lesions, making differential diagnosis essential for effective treatment planning. CASE PRESENTATION: Here, we present a rare case of simultaneous involvement of both jaws by brown tumors in a 37-year-old woman. A comprehensive diagnostic approach including cone beam computed tomographic examination of the jaws, blood biochemistry, scintigraphy (technetium 99 m sestamibi), and biopsy facilitated the identification of underlying parathyroid carcinoma. Notably, the patient experienced spontaneous healing of the extensive brown tumors following endocrine treatment, underscoring the potential for recovery in such cases.
conclusionThis case highlights the essential collaboration between dental and medical professionals in diagnosing complex systemic diseases with oral manifestations, underscoring the dentist's critical role in early detection and improved patient outcomes.
