1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to establish a formula for cervical vertebral bone age (CVBA) based on the morphological changes of cervical vertebrae on cephalometric radiographs in Vietnamese subjects between 7 and 18 years of age. Materials and Methods: This study included 180 children and adolescents (92 boys, 88 girls), between 7 and 18 years of age, selected from the craniofacial morphology studies of the Faculty of Odonto-Stomatology, Ho Chi Minh University of Medicine and Pharmacy. The cephalometric and hand-wrist radiographs of each subject were taken simultaneously and evaluated. Eleven hand-wrist skeletal maturity indicators of Fishman were grouped into five stages: initiation and acceleration, transition, deceleration, maturation, and completion stage. A multivariate regression analysis was conducted to assess the correlation between the stages of hand-wrist BA and the morphological characteristics of the second, third, and fourth cervical vertebrae on the cephalometric radiographs. Results: A formula for CVBA was proposed as follows: CVBA = 1.92+ 0.04 * Conclusion: The quantitative CVBA method could be useful to assess the level of skeletal maturation in orthodontic and orthopedic treatments.
