Desquamative gingivitis: A suspected herpes zoster manifestation?
Article in Journal of Indian Society of Periodontology. 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
Desquamative gingivitis (DG) can be caused by multiple etiologic factors, such as herpes zoster (HZ) and allergic reactions to drugs. Infrequently, a patient may be affected by two different pathologic conditions simultaneously, capable of causing oral and cutaneous lesions, thereby resulting in one condition being overlooked. Since DG is a broad term that encompasses numerous conditions, many of which present with similar cutaneous features, periodontists must be aware of this possibility to provide timely and optimal patient care. The present case report seeks to highlight an atypical oral presentation in a case of suspected HZ infection in a young, systemically healthy female with a history of drug allergy.
