The usefulness of cone beam computed tomography according to age in cleft lip and palate.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 current study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) examination in cleft children and adolescents, the age of the first CBCT exposure, and the criteria that justified the first CBCT exposure. A number of 229 non-syndromic cleft subjects aged between 0-22 years receiving treatment in the same specialized surgical center in orofacial cleft treatment were studied. A cleft group of 64 cleft lip and palate (CLP) children with at least one CBCT exposure was identified based on CBCT records. Parameters related to diagnosis and treatment planning in cleft deformity were considered dental anomalies and bone morphology changes. The examiners assessed whether the treatment option was necessary, not necessary, or could not be evaluated at the age of CBCT exposure. A number of thirty-nine unilateral clefts and fifteen bilateral clefts were identified. Posterior palatal cleft was present in six children (mean age: 15.03±5.55 years; male/female ratio: 1/0.8). Alveolar bone morphology changes were found in 90.58% of cases; jaw relationship changes in 71.82%; nasal fossa morphology changes in 74.99%; airway obstruction in 49.98% and maxillary asymmetry in 87.48%. Orthodontic planning was necessary for 85.93% of CLP patients, and orthognathic surgery in 39.05%. The usefulness of CBCT in patients with CLP varied with age, with reduced value for the evaluation of impaction and root resorption under the age of ten.
