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

objectivesTo define the possible complications of oral surgery in childhood in patients affected by type 1 Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and treated with bisphosphonates (BP).

methodsThe study was conducted among 20 patients in childhood with an age range 8-14 (12 ♂ e 8 ♀) affected by OI. Patients were initially evaluated at the Policlinico Umberto I, University Hospital of Rome, Rare Disease Center Skeletal Dysplasia-Bone Metabolic Pathologies and after at the Policlinico Umberto I, University Hospital of Rome, Head and Neck Department, UOC Pediatric Dentistry.

resultsFrom this experience, we showed that a proper patient management from the medical and dental point of view can protect these patients from the risk of post-operative problems, such as onj, soft tissue flogos, intraoral and extraoral fistulas, failure to heal the post-extractive alveolus, infections, post-operative pain and pathological fractures. The follow-up, ranging from a minimum of 2 years to a maximum of 5 years, have not demonstrated the presence of particular complications or healing defects.

conclusionsThe clinical experiences observed in these patients are encouraging because no postoperative complications have been observed compared to patients non-affected by OI.
