Modern 3D cephalometry in pediatric orthodontics-downsizing the FOV and development of a new 3D cephalometric analysis within a minimized large FOV for dose reduction.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesDose reduction achieved by downsizing the field of view (FOV) in CBCT scans has brought no benefit for pediatric orthodontics, until now. Standard 2D or 3D full-size cephalometric analyses require large FOVs and high effective doses. The aim of this study was to compare a new 3D reduced-FOV analysis using the Frankfurt horizontal (FH) plane as reference plane with a conventional full-size analysis using the Sella-Nasion (S-N) plane as reference plane. MATERIALS AND
methodsThirty-eight CBCT data sets were evaluated using full- and reduced-FOV analysis. The measurements of a total of 20 skeletal and dental standard 3D full-size variables were compared with the measurements of 22 corresponding 3D reduced-FOV variables. Statistical analysis was performed to prove mathematic relation between standard and alternative variables. Regression analyses were carried out.
resultsCoefficients of determination (R
conclusionsAll standard variables related to the reference plane S-N could be described with alternative variables related to the FH. Further research should define more reliable landmarks for coordinate systems and reference points. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Minimized large FOVs meet the demand of 3D cephalometric analyses and enable the application of CBCT scans in pediatric orthodontic patients in many specific indications. Dose reduction is accompanied by increasing access to all the advantages of 3D imaging over 2D imaging.
