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

objectivesThe aim of the study was to determine the association between oral health-related quality-of-life domains and satisfaction with dental condition of school-age children with dental pain in Ibadan, Nigeria.

methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted among 1006 pupils aged 9-12 years who attended 18 randomly selected primary schools in Ibadan, Nigeria. An interviewer-administered questionnaire, Child Oral Impact on Daily Performances inventory in addition to oral examination was used to obtain data. Analysis was done with SPSS 23 and STATA 14 and

resultsThe prevalence of self-reported dental pain was 10.2%. The mean Child Oral Impact on Daily Performances inventory score was 2.6(±7.2) overall and 9.8(±12.4) for pupils with pain. There was a greater impact on oral health-related quality of life of respondents who reported dental pain than in others (mean rank = 749.54 vs 475.4, U = 21,162,
