Accuracy of Demirjian's and Cameriere's Methods for Age Estimation in 6- to 10-Year-Old Iranian Children Using Panoramic Radiographs.

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
Objective: This study assessed the accuracy of Demirjian's and Cameriere's methods for age estimation in Iranian children using panoramic radiographs. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study evaluated 212 panoramic radiographs of 6- to 10-year-old children retrieved from the archives of an oral and maxillofacial radiology department from 2011 to 2017. The chronological age of children at the time of radiography was determined by subtracting the date of radiography from their birth date. The developmental stage of 7 permanent left mandibular teeth was determined according to Demirjian's method. The stage of dental maturation was determined according to Cameriere's method by using the normalized values for 7 permanent left mandibular teeth and the number of teeth with complete root development. The error value of the two methods was calculated by comparing them with the actual chronological age of male and female children, and the absolute error values of the two methods were compared with paired Results: The mean error value of Demirjian's and Cameriere's methods was found to be 0.84 and -0.06 in girls and 0.93 and 0.04 in boys, respectively. Significant differences were noted in the absolute error of the two methods compared with the chronological age of male and female children (both Conclusion: In conclusion, this study indicated that Cameriere's method was more accurate than Demirjian's method for age estimation in Iranian children.
