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
Background: Pediatric dentists face difficulties in treating tooth decay of children with difficulty in opening the mouth. This is especially true, as the main disease is accompanied by such symptoms as arthritis, osteoarthritis, myositis, myalgia, sclerosis, and oral atrophy. Aim: The aim was to increase the level of treatment of fissure tooth decay for children with rheumatic diseases, using the silicone key method (SKM). Materials and Methods: A dental examination of 82 children was carried out, with diagnoses: systemic lupus erythematosus, juvenile systemic scleroderma, juvenile dermatomyositis, and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. Evaluation of the intensity of caries using indices: decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT)(average). Assessment and measurement of the degree of mouth opening (MMO) by Sh. M. Batashvili. The SKM was used to treat fissure tooth decay. Results: During the dental examination of the oral cavity of all children with RD, multiple caries lesions were found. In the first age group of index indicators (DMFT) (on average) - 4.88, in the second age group DMFT (on average) - 7.58 - these values corresponded to high scores for the degree of dental caries, which requires frequent appointment to the dentist. Oral hygiene of children with difficult opening of the mouth is unsatisfactory, which leads to a rapid increase of caries. Restriction of moth opening <4 mm was found in 57 children with RD (69, 51%) that made it difficult to treat caries. Conclusion: Using SKM will improve the quality of caries treatment and provide a stable result of treatment in patients with difficulty opening the mouth in severe somatic pathologies.
