A Deceiving Massive Opacification of the Maxillary Sinus: Odontogenic Cyst Mimicking Odontogenic Sinusitis.
Article in Clinical case reports, 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
Considered the second most common type of odontogenic cysts, dentigerous cysts (DCs) are developmental lesions most often detected incidentally on radiographic imaging. The pathogenesis of DCs is not fully understood, but they are widely regarded as developmental cysts originating from the dental follicle. Although typically asymptomatic, DCs may cause clinical symptoms when they reach large sizes or get infected. This case highlights how a DC (common developmental odontogenic lesion often incidentally detected on imaging) may present with complete maxillary sinus opacification despite minimal symptoms and normal endoscopic findings, underscoring the need for precise terminology when classifying odontogenic-related sinonasal conditions.
