Evaluation of the Clinical Performance of NuSmile Pedodontics Zirconia Crowns in Pulp-Treated Primary Teeth-2 Years Follow-Up Study.
Article in European journal of dentistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesThere is a lack of information regarding the longevity of prefabricated crowns on primary teeth. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the clinical success rate of NuSmile pediatric Zirconia crowns in both primary anterior and posterior teeth up to 2 years in terms of gingival health, levels of plaque, restoration failure, and marginal integrity. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis interventional study evaluated the clinical performance of NuSmile primary Zirconia crowns on 232 (172 primary incisors and 60 primary molars) pulp-treated primary teeth. Statistical analysis included independent
resultsGingival and plaque index of the teeth restored with NuSmile Zirconia crowns (test tooth) compared with adjacent and antagonist teeth (control tooth) showed no statistically significant difference at all time intervals (
conclusionsZirconia pediatric crowns preserve and maintain gingival health and have long-term survival rates with good retention and marginal integrity, indirectly preventing secondary caries. Hence, Zirconia pediatric crowns are a well-suited restoration of choice for primary teeth rehabilitation.
