Effects of miniscrew-facilitated micro-osteoperforations on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement : A split-mouth, randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Journal of orofacial orthopedics = Fortschritte der Kieferorthopadie : Organ/official journal Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Kieferorthopadie, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05339620 (Effect of Implant Driver Facilitated Micro-osteo Perforations on the Rate of Tooth Movement.), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 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.

Abstract
purposeThe aim of the present split-mouth randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effects of miniscrew-facilitated micro-osteoperforations (MOPs) on the rate of orthodontic tooth movement during canine retraction.
methodsA total of 20 young adult patients (mean age 16.5 years) with the indication for bilateral maxillary first premolar extraction were included in the study. The MOPs were randomly applied to either the right or left side of the mouth with miniscrews (1.5 mm width, 8 mm length) to the extraction area, 28 days apart. The canine distalization continued for 3 months. The closure of the extraction space was measured by using a digital analysis program on the pre- and postdigital study models for both the control and experiment sides.
resultsThe mean rate of extraction space closure on the MOP side was 2.51 ± 1.41 mm and on the control side was 2.88 ± 1.32 mm. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups (p > 0.05).
conclusionOverall, we found that MOPs did not significantly affect the rate of orthodontic tooth movement during canine retraction.
