Co-occurrence of feline chronic gingivostomatitis and oral squamous cell carcinoma in 4 cats (2014-2024).

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
Introduction: Cats with refractory feline chronic gingivostomatitis (FCGS) exhibit chronic oral inflammation despite surgical and medical therapy. Such areas may resemble or be at higher risk for oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Without routine biopsies, occult SCC may remain undiagnosed. Objectives: This study investigated the prevalence and potential association of oral SCC occurrence in cats with refractory FCGS. Methods: A retrospective review of cats with refractory FCGS and oral SCC from two veterinary teaching hospitals (2014-2024) was conducted. Cases with histopathologically confirmed FCGS, SCC, or both were included. Data analyzed included signalment, medical history, treatment, clinical findings, and diagnostics. Results: Two hundred twenty-one cats with refractory FCGS and 24 cats with oral SCC at the first institution, and 32 cats with refractory FCGS and 16 cats with oral SCC at the second institution, were presented over a 10-year period. Only four cats from both institutions had co-occurrence of FCGS and oral SCC. All affected cats exhibited bilateral proliferative FCGS lesions in the caudal oral cavity and developed SCC within 16-29 months (mean: 22 months). Two of four cats had epithelial dysplasia at FCGS diagnosis. SCC occurrence was significantly, inversely associated with FCGS at one institution (0.9%, Conclusion: Co-occurrence of FCGS and SCC is rare. While SCC may develop in proliferative FCGS areas, the low occurrence does not establish FCGS as a predisposing factor for SCC.
