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

This case report describes the procedure and outcome of regenerative endodontic treatment (RET) in a tooth with incomplete root apex and posttreatment apical periodontitis. A 44-year-old patient was referred to the endodontist because of a periapical lesion on tooth #21 and a recent episode of acute periapical abscess. On clinical and radiographic examination, this tooth presented with tenderness to percussion and palpation, periapical radiolucent lesion, external apical resorption, and incomplete apex formation. After coronal access, the filling material was removed, and the canal was gently prepared with hand files, using 1% NaOCl as the main irrigant followed by final irrigation with 17% EDTA, activated with XP-endo Finisher (FKG Dentaire, La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland). The root canal was filled with a double antibiotic paste with ciprofloxacin and metronidazole (1:1). After three weeks, RET was performed by stimulating bleeding into the canal, and when a clot was formed, a bioceramic (EndoSequence BC Sealer, Brasseler USA, Savannah, GA) plug was placed on it, followed by coronal restoration. The tooth remained asymptomatic since RET was concluded. Clinical and radiographic follow-ups showed complete repair of the apical periodontitis lesion and the absence of symptoms after eight months. This satisfactory outcome was confirmed after 34 months.
