Chronic Osteomyelitis of the Jaws: Management and Outcomes in a Tertiary Maxillofacial Surgery Unit.
Article in Craniomaxillofacial trauma & reconstruction, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThis study aims to evaluate the management and outcomes over 14 years at a tertiary maxillofacial surgery unit.
methodsRetrospective cohort study of patients from a Portuguese tertiary center of maxillofacial surgery with histopathologically confirmed diagnoses of chronic osteomyelitis of the jaws between January 2010 and December 2023. Demographic and clinical characteristics, treatment, and progression of the disease were evaluated.
resultsFifty-three patients were included-28 women (52.8%), mean age 55 (95% CI 5-90) years. The mandible was affected in 84.9% (
conclusionsAlmost half of the isolates were amoxicillin-resistant, reinforcing the need for susceptibility testing. Surgical management guided by etiology and disease stage remains essential, with more extensive resection needed in MRONJ and ORN.
