Analysis of Factors Related to Distal Proximal Caries on the Distal Surface of the Mandibular Second Molar Induced by an Impacted Mandibular Third Molar.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo analyze the factors related to distal proximal caries of the mandibular second molar (MSM) induced by an impacted mandibular third molar (MTM).
methodsA total 500 panoramic radiographs of patients with impacted MTMs who were treated in the Department of Stomatology of the Affiliated Hospital of Yanbian University between October 2017 and October 2019 were selected. Descriptive and bivariate analyses were conducted, and the diagnosis of caries in the MSM and the position of the MTM were evaluated.
resultsThe posterior margin space of the MSM was larger in males (13.5 mm) than females (11.1 mm,
conclusionThe posterior margin space of the MSM influences the impacted condition of the MTM. Preventive extraction can be considered if the impacted angle is <80°, especially in the case of a fully or partially emergent MTM at position A or B and mesioangular impacted areas.
