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

backgroundPeripheral odontogenic keratocyst (POKC) is a rare extraosseous manifestation of odontogenic keratocyst (OKC). Because of their anatomical locations, OKCs and POKCs necessitate slightly different treatment approaches. However, the reported literature has not yet reached a definitive conclusion on this matter.

methodsThis study included 2 patients who experienced postoperative recurrence of POKCs in the right buccal mucosa from 2018 to 2020. Additionally, we reviewed the reported cases and summarized the clinical features, treatment and prognosis of the POKCs.

resultsThe two patients with POKCs in this report experienced recurrence after the first surgery, and the second operation involved microscopic excision of the lesion with its adherent tissue. No recurrence was observed.

conclusionsBecause POKCs are located in the soft tissue, they are difficult to remove and therefore prone to recur. In the treatment of POKCs, the surrounding adhesions can also be removed. Microscopic excision should be performed as well.
