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

purposeTo test the null hypothesis of no significant deviation between the center of rotation (C

methodsThis retrospective study included 29 patients (male/female 11/18; mean age 15.6 [13-27] years) with inclusion criteria of an Angle class II/2 occlusion of least of half of a cusp, maxillary dental arch spacing, completed CCLA treatment (WIN, DW Lingual Systems, Bad Essen, Germany) in one center with a standardized archwire sequence and use of class II elastics and elastic chains only. Maxillary incisor root inclination was assessed by X‑ray superimpositions of the maxilla at the beginning (T1) and the end (T3) of CCLA treatment. Using Keynote software (Apple®, Cupertino, CA, USA), the incisor's C

conclusionCCLAs can create upper incisor palatal root torque even in cases in which lingually oriented forces applied incisally to the center of resistance of the upper incisors counteract these intended root movements.
