Treatment of Moderately Crowded Teeth Using Lingual Fixed Appliance Prepared by a Modified HIRO® Technique: A Case Report and Method Description.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06401369 (CBCT-based Assessment of Apical Root Resorption and Alveolar Bone Height Following Orthodontic Treatment of Moderate Crowding With Labial vs. Lingual Fixed Appliances), which is not on this map.

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
There are various manual laboratory methods available for indirect positioning and bonding of lingual brackets. The manual setup has limitations because of its complicated laboratory procedures and requires time and specialized laboratory equipment. In addition, the manual method is also prone to human errors. In this case report, a description of a new method of laboratory preparation for the indirect bonding of lingual brackets is given by merging recent advances in digital dentistry with some of the ordinary manual steps in this field. Therefore, the well-known HIRO® technique has been modified by using the three-dimensional (3D) virtual setup instead of the traditional manual setup. This method does not require the use of any specialized laboratory equipment, and it is also cost-effective for patients who cannot afford fully customized lingual appliances. In this modified technique, 3Shape Ortho Analyzer™ software (3Shape, Copenhagen, Denmark) and a 3D printer (Prusa® i3 mk3; Prusa Research, Prague, Czech Republic) were used to align the teeth three-dimensionally into their desired positions and to produce the final working printed model on which lingual brackets were placed, and transfer caps were fabricated for clinical use.
