Comparative Assessment of Anxiety during Inferior Alveolar Nerve Block under Nitrous Oxide + Oxygen and Oxygen Inhalation Sedation in Children Aged 3-12 Years: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry. 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
Aim: A comparative evaluation of children's anxiety with the use of nitrous oxide-oxygen (N Materials and methodology: A total of 60 children between 3 and 12 years of age, with Frankl's behavior rating of 2-3 requiring IANB for any dental procedure were enrolled in this randomized clinical study. Group I ( Results: There was a significant difference in the FLACC scores between the two groups, intraoperatively ( Conclusion: The use of N Clinical significance: Nitrous oxide-oxygen (N How to cite this article: Thomas PS, Dave BH, Shah DJ,
