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

As patients access most of their dental care within the primary care setting, it is relevant to consider how the experience and opinions of general dental practitioners (GDPs) influence the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of their patients with tooth wear. This paper records the agreed outcomes of semi-structured discussions with three experienced GDPs. The aim is to continue the broader debate about how patients with tooth wear currently are and ideally could be managed within the primary care settings in England. The outcomes are also likely to be applicable to other countries, regardless of the local funding models for routine patient care.
