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
The lateral periodontal cyst (LPC) is a relatively rare odontogenic non-inflammatory cyst that arises in the alveolar process in close proximity to the roots of vital teeth. LPC is considered to be an odontogenic cyst of developmental origin that arise in close proximity to the periodontal space of teeth, with the exclusion of an inflammatory pathogenesis. LPC is most frequently observed in the premolar region of the mandible, followed by the maxillary incisor region. It is preferentially diagnosed in individuals aged between 40 and 70 years, although it may be occasionally diagnosed in patients outside this age range. LPC is usually asymptomatic and it is usually found by a combination of a clinical finding of a gingival swelling in the facial or lingual aspect of a tooth and of a radiographic finding. The involved teeth are usually vital. The radiographic feature of LPC is a well circumscribed ovoid-round radiolucent area, usually with a less than 1 cm diameter. The aim of the present article is to present an unusual case of LPC in the molar region in a 10-year-old child, and to discuss its diagnosis and management.
