A systematic review and meta-analysis on the effects of crown lengthening on adjacent and non-adjacent sites.
Synthesis in Clinical oral investigations, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectivesThe objective of the study was to assess the impact of periodontal crown lengthening surgery on clinical parameters at adjacent and non-adjacent sites compared to treated sites. MATERIAL AND
methodsAn electronic search was carried out on MEDLINE-PubMed, The Cochrane Library, and ISI Web of Science databases between 1978 and 2015. Methodological quality assessment was based on Cochrane recommendations. Meta-analyses were assessed with RevMan 5.0 and heterogeneity between studies by the Higgin test (I
resultsThe surgery promoted significant changes in treated, adjacent, and non-adjacent sites. There were greater changes in PD (mean difference -0.14, 95 % CI -0.18 to -0.10, p < 0.00001) and CAL (mean difference 0.16, 95 % CI 0.13 to 0.20, p < 0.00001) in treated sites when compared to adjacent and non-adjacent sites for PD (mean difference -0.09, 95 % CI -0.12 to -0.05, p < 0.00001) and CAL (mean difference 0.91, 95 % CI 0.87 to 0.94, p < 0.00001).
conclusionCrown lengthening surgery results in changes of clinical parameters in treated, adjacent, and non-adjacent sites. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Clinical and esthetic alterations on the adjacent/non-adjacent teeth can lead to clinical and esthetic alterations, which must be considered in surgical planning.
