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
introductionTo present a service evaluation of the "Open Wide and Step Inside" oral health programme delivered in Plymouth, UK.
aimTo develop an oral health programme supporting Key Stage One of the National Curriculum for delivery to children aged 4-6 years in targeted schools.
methodsThe programme was designed and developed in partnership with stakeholders from a range of sectors using a community engagement approach. The programme has been delivered in schools in targeted areas of the city since 2014/15. Outcome (participation of schools and children) and process evaluations were carried out using a range of methods to collect feedback from children, teachers and parents.
resultsSchool adoption and engagement in the programme has been high exceeding the targets set for implementation. So far over 4000 children have participated in the programme and schools have welcomed support in delivering oral health as part of the national curriculum.
