A Clinically Silent Mandibular Odontogenic Keratocyst in a Geriatric Patient: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Insights.
Article in Annals of African medicine, 2026. 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
abstractOdontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is an aggressive, benign, cystic lesion arising from the mandible. A 65-year-old male presented with increasing left jaw swelling for 20 years was diagnosed as OKC with the help of the radiological and pathological correlation. A computed tomography scan revealed the well-defined expansile solid-cystic lesion involving the left mandible with multiple foci of calcification and cortical breach. The patient was managed surgically with segmental mandibulectomy and mandibular reconstruction. Histopathology revealed the fibrous cyst wall lined by keratinized stratified squamous epithelium with a prominent basal cell layer. Due to the aggressive nature and high recurrence rate of the OKC, early diagnosis and precise surgical resection with clear margins are required. Radiological and histopathological correlation is needed for the accurate diagnosis, surgical planning and to prevent complications for the management of OKC.
