1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundDentinogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder of the dentin occurring during the tooth development. It leads to many structural changes that can be identified clinically (brownish colored teeth, cracked enamel) and radiologically (globular crown, cervical constriction, short roots, and obliterated pulp chamber and/or root canals). The aim of this study was to determine by panoramic radiographs assessment the incidence of dentinogenesis imperfecta in a group of patients attending a specialized maxillofacial imaging center in Paris, France. MATERIAL AND

methodsA retrospective observational study was conducted using panoramic radiographs of 8830 patients (3723 males and 5107 females), which were used to search the radiological criteria of dentinogenesis imperfecta.

resultsIn our sample, the prevalence of dentinogenesis imperfecta was 0.057%. Out of the 8830 subjects, 0.080% of the males presented the radiological signs of the dentinogenesis imperfecta against 0.039% of the females.

conclusionIn our study, we found that dentinogenesis imperfecta is a relatively rare dental anomaly in France, with a rate different from the rates reported in other studies and with no disparity in prevalence among genders.
