Environmentally sustainable dentistry: energy use within the dental practice.
Article in British dental journal, 2019. 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
This paper forms part of a series of papers, seven in total, which have been requested by a number of colleagues to help them understand sustainability as it relates to dentistry. This paper focuses on energy and how the dental team can influence the amount and type of energy it uses, in order to become more sustainable. It is the authors' hope that this series of papers stimulates interest, debate and discussion and that, as well as being economically responsible, ultimately motivates and inspires dental practices to be more socially and environmentally sustainable; which will in turn help promote health and illness prevention.
