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
The study presents results of periapical lesion healing after one-visit root canal treatment (RCT) with Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin plus (A-PRF+) application compared to a two-visit RCT with an inter-appointment calcium hydroxide filling. The comparison was made based on CBCT-Periapical Index (PAI) lesion volume changes and the occurrence of post endodontic pain. The results of 3D radiographic healing assessments based on volume reduction criteria were different from the CBCT-PAI. Based on volume changes, the healing assessment criteria-9 cases from the Study Group and six cases in the Control Group were defined as healed. Based on the CBCT-PAI healing assessment criteria, 8 cases from the Study Group and 9 cases from the Control Group were categorized as healed. The volumes of apical radiolucency were, on average, reduced by 85.93% in the Study Group and by 72.31% in the Control Group. Post-endodontic pain occurred more frequently in the Control than in the Study Group. The highest score of pain in the Study Group was five (moderate pain, n = 1), while in the Control Group, the highest score was eight (severe pain, n = 2). In the 6-month follow-up, CBCT scans showed a better healing tendency for patients in the Study Group.
