Direct pulp capping of carious immature tooth using bioactive material: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
The management of deep carious lesions in immature tooth and the preservation of its pulp vitality is a real challenge in daily dental practice. Bioactive cements are of interest to deal with such cases. Our case report describes the immediate management and the follow-up of an extensive carious lesion on an immature first right mandibular molar with pulp exposure by direct pulp capping using Biodentine. A 6-month clinical and radiographic follow up showed that the tooth was vital, with dentine-bridge formation in the pulp chamber with continuous root formation. This procedure allowed the protection of pulp complex, preserving at the same time its functional and biologic activities due to the capacities of Biodentine as an effective pulp capping material to induce pulp cells to form hard tissue. The aim of this article is to discuss through the report of this clinical case, the indications, advantages and disadvantages of different procedures and biomaterials used for direct pulp capping.
