A Lip Mass Revealing Syphilis: A Case Report With a Review of the Literature.
Article in Case reports in dentistry, 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
Background: Syphilis is a chronic systemic infection caused by Case Presentation: We report a case of a 26-year-old male who presented with a nonpainful swelling of the lower lip that had persisted for 2 months, with a differential diagnosis including both reactive and neoplastic processes, and underwent a biopsy for definitive diagnosis. Histopathological examination demonstrated ulcerated oral mucosa with psoriasiform epithelial hyperplasia, neutrophilic transmigration, and a dense chronic inflammatory infiltrate rich in plasma cells. Immunohistochemical staining highlighted Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of considering syphilis in the differential diagnosis of atypical oral lesions. Early recognition by dental practitioners, supported by histopathological evaluation, immunohistochemistry, and serologic testing, is essential for timely diagnosis, appropriate referral, and prevention of disease progression and transmission.
