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

The clinical and histopathological distinctions between oral lichen planus (OLP) and oral lichenoid lesions (OLLs) are clinically and histopathologically difficult since they both have overlapping clinical presentations. The retrospective cross-sectional study involved the assessment of 100 biopsy-proven cases to determine discriminating clinical patterns and microscopic characteristics. OLP were significantly more bilateral and had a typical band-like superficial lymphocytic infiltrate with OLLs having recognisable triggers, more inflammation around vessels and frequent eosinophils. These histopathologic clues had high levels of discriminatory power between the two entities. A combination of clinical and major microscopic markers, i.e., eosinophil-rich infiltrates has a great impact on diagnostic accuracy between OLP and OLL.
