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
backgroundDental treatment is fundamental in the rehabilitation of individuals with orofacial clefts, due to their oral condition; when indicated, endodontic therapy allows elimination of infection of the root canal system. Aim: To analyze, by a retrospective study, the most prevalent type of orofacial cleft, the etiological factors most commonly related to the endodontic treatment need, as well as their success and failure rates. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis study analyzed data from 136 records (76 females and 60 males) with mean age of 19 years and 7 months, who met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected including the type of cleft, etiological factors that led to the need of endodontic treatment, as well as their success and failure rates. The statistical analysis was performed by the chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis, Fisher's Exact and Batista Pike tests.
resultsAmong the etiological factors, were pulp involvement due to caries, endodontic treatment for prosthetic rehabilitation, tooth resorptions, for orthodontic movement, dental trauma and indication of internal tooth bleaching; the most prevalent factor was pulp involvement due to caries. Among all data analyzed, cleft lip and palate presented the highest percentage, and there was predominance of treatment success compared to failure.
conclusionsThe well-conducted root canal treatment is necessary for dental rehabilitation, maintaining the masticatory function and esthetic harmony of these individuals.
