Early diagnosis and daily practice management of erosive tooth wear lesions.
Review in British dental journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
This paper explores some of the most relevant questions faced by dental practitioners when diagnosing early erosive tooth wear (ETW) and implementing non-operative management of this condition over time. It focuses on the identification of clinical signs and common locations of ETW lesions, the assessment of individual risk and the implementation of non-operative management strategies, aiming to arrest and/or reduce the rate of ETW progression and avoid its advance to pathological stages. To this end, we present a novel and comprehensive approach that considers the whole dentition of patients rather than individual groups of teeth or dental surfaces only, illustrating it with a series of clinical photographs. Dental practitioners may find this approach particularly helpful as it closely simulates the clinical examinations of patients of all age groups carried out in daily practice. The clinical signs of early ETW lesions are subtle and often not perceived as relevant by unaware clinicians. However, the early diagnosis and implementation of non-operative management strategies, especially at younger ages, is fundamental for the proper control of ETW over time.
