Hybrid tracer - A modified novel extra oral tracer.
Article in Journal of oral biology and craniofacial research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Introduction: Gothic arch Tracing has been a common modality in the recording of centric jaw relation. There has been two ways of recording the gothic tracing. They are extra oral and intra oral tracing. Among the extra oral tracers hight tracers are the most used tracers. Aim: Intra-oral and extra-oral tracers have a number of individual advantages and limitations. With the idea to overcome the short comings of both the tracers, hybrid tracers were made. Hybrid tracers could be a good alternative to the Hight-tracer in recording centric relation and can provide better clinical and teaching experience to the students. Methodology: The hybrid tracer is a two-component assembly, upper and lower component. The upper component has a central bearing plate and stylus in continuation with the central bearing plate. The lower component has central bearing device with three central bearing points one anteriorly and two posteriorly, and it has a tracing platform (15 × 35 mm) in continuation with the central bearing device. The length of these upper and lower components ismade to confine within the incisal rod of semi adjustable articulator. Result: hybrid tracers showed more accuracy while recording the centric jaw relation. There was more stability and equalization of pressure during the movement due to a tripod effect of three screws. Hence it provided more precise recording and being less technique sensitive. It was also more comfortable and acceptable by the patient. Conclusion: hybrid tracers hence will provide more accuracy and precision in recording of horizontal jaw relation. This will in turn help in fabricating a successful prosthesis and enhance the well-being of the patient. This tracer will also be significant in institutions for educational purpose. Clinical implication: Hybrid tracers are simple, non-technique sensitive, provide balance, equalization of pressure, stabilize the occlusal rims well, are close to the centre of rotation providing precise record and provide easy access and visibility to the operator which will help the operator in guiding the patient well for a correct jaw relation.
