Voicing Beliefs on Global Leadership for Dentistry.
Article in International dental journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 leadership in different models of care is not well documented, and therefore the objectives of this study were to explore how dental leaders develop their own leadership and how they engage others to increase access to oral health services as well as to describe perceived challenges in developing coalitions for promoting oral health care.
methodsWe adopted a qualitative descriptive research methodology. We recruited dental leaders using a purposeful sampling approach and a snowball technique. Data were collected using a remote digital platform; we organised semi-structured interviews based on the LEADS conceptual framework. Saturation was reached after 11 interviews. Data analysis included the following iterative steps: decontextualisation, recontextualisation, categorisation, and data compilation. The analysis was performed manually, assisted by the use of QDA Miner software.
resultsFourteen dental leaders participated in the study. Our analysis revealed 3 overarching themes: (I) lead self, with 3 subthemes: leadership insights; leadership traits; opportunity-role model dyad; (II) leadership strategies; and (III) challenges in leadership development, with 3 subthemes: limited engaged practice and workforce, valorise the image of dentistry, and lack of leadership training.
conclusionsOur research findings showed that, despite a limited scope of leadership in dentistry, the dental leaders recognise its importance and acknowledge the need for formal training and mentorship at different levels. This study identified challenges in dental leadership development that could further orient dental education programmes and support the implementation of evidence-based, high-quality, and efficient oral health services.
