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

Dental caries and trauma always lead to pulp necrosis and subsequent root development arrest of young permanent teeth. The traditional treatment, apexification, with the absence of further root formation, results in abnormal root morphology and compromises long-term prognosis. Regeneration endodontics procedures (REPs) have been developed and considered as an alternative strategy for management of immature permanent teeth with pulpal necrosis, including cell-free and cell-based REPs. Cell-free REPs, including revascularization and cell homing with molecules recruiting endogenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), have been widely applied in clinical treatment, showing optimistic periapical lesion healing and continued root development. However, the regenerated pulp-dentin complex is still absent in these cases. Dental MSCs, as one of the essentials of tissue engineering, are vital seed cells in regenerative medicine. Dental MSC-based REPs have presented promising potential with pulp-dentin regeneration in large animal studies and clinical trials via cell transplantation. In the present review, we summarize current understanding of the biological basis of clinical treatments for immature necrotic permanent teeth and the roles of dental MSCs during this process and update the progress of MSC-based REPs in the administration of immature necrotic permanent teeth.
