Repeat paediatric dental general anaesthesia at Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust: a service evaluation.
Article in British dental journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Introduction The use of general anaesthesia in paediatric dentistry should be appropriate and justified. During the treatment of children, a clinician should have foresight into the future dental requirements of the patient and whether a future general anaesthetic will be required in quick succession. Efforts should be made when possible to avoid this.Aims This service evaluation was performed to gather information regarding repeat dental general anaesthetics within Sheffield Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.Methods All children's records who had experienced a repeat dental general anaesthetic between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2018 were analysed. Those who had experienced a repeat dental general anaesthetic within two years were investigated.Results Overall, 0.63% of children had a repeat dental general anaesthetic within a two-year period. These repeat dental general anaesthetics were mainly justified due to new dental caries. 43.9% had modifying factors, such as a complex medical history, that could have impacted the need for a second dental general anaesthetic.Conclusion The repeat rate in Sheffield Children's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is low. We believe this is a result of specialist treatment planning and appropriate use of both 'extraction only' and 'restorative and extraction' GA lists.
