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

aimThis study aimed to explore the emotional and psychological effects of dental treatment under general anesthesia (DTGA) on children and parents in Saskatoon city, Saskatchewan, Canada.

designSemi-structured interviews, video diaries, drawings, and a questionnaire were used to collect data. The study used a narrative perspective and thematic analysis to analyze data.

resultsThe findings from children and their parents (N = 25) indicated DTGA is disconcerting from both views. Parental guilt and the desire of both parents and children to not have to go through the experience again fueled at least short-term compliance with brushing, flossing, and changes in dietary habits.

conclusionThe children participants provided valuable information to augment that gathered from parents. As the study revealed that the DTGA is psychologically and emotionally troubling for both children and their caregivers, it is imperative to explore ways to ease the GA experience. Specific recommendations were provided for optimizing dental and health services for those children and their families.
