Sub-clinical Cervical Root Resorption: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
External cervical resorption (ECR) is a dynamic pathological process characterized by its cervical position on the root and arises below the epithelial attachment and the coronal part of the bone. This report will highlight a case of ECR in an asymptomatic patient. A radiolucent area was noted during a routine dental follow-up examination on the bitewings at the mesial surface of the upper right second premolar. Persistently, the radiolucency had multiple radiographic views indicating a true form of a lesion that could be diagnosed as external cervical resorption. The patient did not report any complaints since dental treatment was completed in 2016. After a series of radiographs and conducting further diagnostic measures, a diagnosis of ECR was confirmed. The best treatment of choice for this case was extraction and restoring the missing tooth with an implant-supported crown. The size and the extent of such a defect could affect the strategy for implant placement. This paper aimed to report that ECR can be asymptomatic for a long time with advanced cervical root resorption in some cases.
