Infected Dentigerous Cyst With Extraoral Fistula in a Child.

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
Dentigerous cysts are the most common developmental odontogenic cysts. Still, a secondarily infected dentigerous cyst in children that results in an extraoral fistula is rare and can present as a routine odontogenic abscess. In this paper, we present a case of a healthy 10-year-old girl with progressive pain, swelling, and purulent discharge of the left mandibular area documented for one month after outpatient antibiotic treatment. Clinical examination showed a fluctuant facial swelling with an external fistula, while CT revealed a well-defined unilocular cystic lesion with an unerupted mandibular second premolar. The patient was treated with surgical enucleation of the cyst, extraction of the retained second molar and premolar, and excision of the external fistula. The wound culture grew
