Etiopathogenesis of Oral Lichen Planus: A Review.
Review in Head and neck pathology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundOral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic immune-mediated disease affecting the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, regarded as a potentially malignant disorder.
methodsWe performed a narrative review of the literature compiling key hypotheses on the etiopathogenesis of OLP, addressing recently raised aspects and questions yet to be elucidated.
resultsThe etiopathogenesis of OLP is complex and not fully understood, with evidence suggesting a multifactorial cause. Lesions appear to be triggered by the recognition of one or more antigens, provoking a dysregulated T-cell-mediated immune response against oral keratinocytes. Genetic and environmental factors significantly influence the orchestration of various immune and non-immune cells, cytokines, and molecules involved in this pathological process.
conclusionsUnderstanding recent theories on the etiopathogenesis of OLP is crucial forguiding future research on its diagnosis and treatment, as well as on preventing its malignant transformation.
