Dimensional changes of dental arches produced by fixed and removable palatal cribs: A prospective, randomized, controlled study.
Trial report in The Angle orthodontist, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectiveTo evaluate the dimensional changes of dental arches on digital models of open bite treatment with fixed and removable palatal cribs. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe sample comprised 41 patients of both sexes who were white, aged 7-10 years, and who had mixed dentition, Angle Class I molar relationship, and a negative overbite of at least 1 mm. The sample was randomly divided into two groups: G1, fixed palatal crib; and G2, removable palatal crib. Cast models, obtained initially (T1) and after 1 year of treatment (T2), were scanned by a three-dimensional (3D) scanner, 3Shape R700, producing a 3D image. Measurements were performed by a calibrated examiner using OrthoAnalyzer™ 3D software.
resultsAt T2-T1, differences were observed between the groups regarding vertical dentoalveolar development and overjet. There was more mandibular incisor extrusion for G1 (-1.66 mm) than for G2 (-0.54 mm). An overjet increase was observed in G1 (0.56 mm), in contrast to a reduction in G2 (-0.40 mm). There was a similar overbite increase for both groups (3.51 mm for fixed palatal crib and 3.88 mm for removable palatal crib).
conclusionsBoth the treatment protocols are similarly effective for anterior open bite correction, providing an overbite increase with dentoalveolar arch changes, especially in the anterior region.
