Clinical Evaluation of Bilateral Multiple Gingival Recession Treatment with Autogenous Connective Tissue Graft Associated with Low-Level Laser Therapy.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGingival recession (GR) is described as an apical displacement of the gingival margin in relation to the cementoenamel junction, exposing the root surface to the oral cavity environment. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical results of a bilateral root coverage (RC) of GR associated with an autogenous connective tissue graft (aCTG) alone or combined with low-level laser therapy (aCTG + LLLT).
methodsThis cross-sectional, split-mouth, double-blind, clinical pilot study featured three individuals who attended a periodontics post-graduate program with the main complaint of GR and dental hypersensitivity (DHS). Of these, only one patient met the inclusion criteria and the parameters evaluated were: DHS, the keratinized tissue's thickness and width clinical attachment level (CAL), probing on depth (PD), and bilateral GR based on Cairo RT I. The patient was evaluated by a first clinical evaluator and the treatment was randomly divided into two groups, G1: aCTG only (control group,
resultsthe RC mean percentage was <95% in both groups after 90 days. Comparing treatment sides, G1 (
conclusionsthe results indicated that aCTG + LLLT might have an additional benefit to GR root coverage within the evaluated time and this section also includes the within-study limitations.
