Ergonomic working posture in simulated dental clinical conditions: effect of magnification on the operator's experience.
Article in PeerJ, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
objectivesThis study observed the effect of different magnification systems on working posture and neck angulation during cavity preparation procedures according to operator's experience.
methodsThis was a laboratory study. The response variables were the neck angulation and the working posture adopted during Class I cavity preparations (
resultsFor all treated teeth it was observed higher posture scores and lowest neck angulations while using the Galilean and Keplerian loupes (
conclusionIt can be concluded that Galilean and Keplerian loupes helped operators to maintain an ergonomic posture and lower neck angulations for all teeth and the operator's experience provided better ergonomic posture for the mandibular teeth.
