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
purposeThe efficiency of dentoalveolar compensation involving both jaws for posterior crossbite correction using computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) expansion and compression archwires was evaluated. Treatment outcome was tested against the null hypothesis that the transverse correction achieved would be significantly smaller than planned.
methodsThis retrospective study included 64 patients (mean age 23.5 years, median 17.0, minimum/maximum: 9.0/63.0, standard deviation 13.7) with uni- or bilateral posterior crossbite. In all consecutively debonded patients, expansion and/or compression archwires were used for dentoalveolar correction involving both jaws. Plaster casts prior to (T1) and following treatment (T2) with completely customized lingual appliances (CCLA) were compared with the treatment plan represented by an individual target set-up. The statistical analysis was carried out using the Schuirmann TOST (two one-sided t‑tests) equivalence test on the basis of a one-sample t‑test with α = 0.025 to one side. The non-inferiority margin was set at δ = 0.5 mm.
resultsAll posterior crossbites could be corrected by dentoalveolar compensation involving both jaws. The mean total correction achieved was 6.9 mm (mean maxillary expansion: 4.3 mm/mean mandibular compression: 2.6 mm) with a maximum of 12.8 mm. The transverse corrections achieved in both arches at T2 were equivalent to the planned corrections in the set-up (p < 0.001).
conclusionThe results of this study indicate that CAD/CAM expansion and compression archwires can be an efficient tool to achieve the desired correction in patients with a posterior crossbite even in more severe cases.
