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

backgroundNon-odontogenic bone tumors of the jawbones constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors that may arise in various regions of the maxillofacial complex and present as chondroid or bone-forming tumors (BFTs). Therefore, this 53-year retrospective study aimed to evaluate the clinical, radiographic, and histopathological characteristics of BFTs (osteoma-OT, osteoblastoma-OB and osteosarcoma-OS) diagnosed at a single oral pathology referral center in Brazil. MATERIAL AND

methodsGender, age, symptoms, clinical diagnosis, lesion duration, anatomical site, size of the lesion, and radiographic characteristics were collected from all cases previously diagnosed as BFTs, and all histological sections were reviewed.

resultsAmong 19.596 cases diagnosed at the service during the study period, 74 (0.37%) were identified as OTs, OBs or OSs, with OTs being the most common (55.4%). There was a predominance of female patients (70.2%), and the mandible was the most affected gnathic bone (84.7%). Radiographically, OTs typically presented as well-delimited, radiopaque lesions (68.4%), whereas OBs (68.4%) and OSs (75.0%) frequently exhibited mixed radiolucent patterns. Histopathologically, OTs were predominantly classified as compact, and OBs were commonly typical. Osteosarcomas were frequently of osteoblastic subtype.

conclusionsAwareness of clinical, radiographic and histopathological characteristics is essential for improving recognition of the distinct profiles of BFTs.
