Ungraded means an effect was reported without a GRADE rating; it is not a gap. No studies means the review found nothing to answer the question. The six categories are a display order, not a score.

Review question

ElementPlanned (methods)Found (results)
PopulationAdults over the age of 18 with a validated diagnosis of solitary keratocystic odontogenic tumours (KCOT) arising in the jaw bones of the maxilla or mandible; patients with known Gorlin syndrome excluded; participants under 18 excluded (most paediatric cases thought linked to Gorlin syndrome / PTCH gene mutations)No included studies
InterventionAny intervention for KCOT (e.g. enucleation, marsupialisation), alone or with an adjunctive therapy (ostectomy, cryotherapy, or Carnoy's solution)No included studies
ComparisonA different intervention (e.g. enucleation versus marsupialisation), or the same surgical intervention without the adjunctive therapyNo included studies
OutcomesPrimary: radiographic or clinical evidence of recurrence (validated); need for further surgery. Secondary: morbidity; surgical complications; quality of life (validated questionnaires); hospital bed days and associated cost implications. Adverse effects: any unexpected/adverse events documented if identifiedNo included studies
Study designsRandomised controlled trials (RCTs)No included studies
TimingNot specifiedNo included studies
