1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Practitioners need to know the normal and complex anatomy of the root canal system of individual teeth. Maxillary central incisors almost in all cases have one root and one root canal system. This case report describes a non-surgical endodontic treatment of a double-rooted maxillary central incisor using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). A fourteen-year-old male with spontaneous pain of the maxillary left incisor showed the presence of an extra root on the periapical radiograph. CBCT was used to assess the root canal details that lead to finding a narrow root in the mesial of the main root. Also, a periapical bone defect was detected. Nonsurgical treatment of tooth performed. At the 3-month follow-up, the tooth was functional and the lesion was healed. Therefore, practitioners should consider the presence of extra roots and canals during root canal treatment. CBCT imaging helps in detecting the exact location of the extra root.
