Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07773805 (Assessment of the Clinical and Radiographic Success of Calcium Hydroxide Iodoform Paste Versus Modified Triple Antibiotic Paste for the Treatment of Necrotic Primary Molars Using LSTR Technique), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Objective: To clarify the effects on the development, position and morphology of the permanent successors of primary molars affected by apical periodontitis (AP). Method: A total of 132 panoramic radiographs of children aged from 4 to 10 were screened out and a total of 159 mandibular second primary molars with chronic apical periodontitis(AP)(93 males and 66 females) were analyzed. The maturation values of permanent successors were interpreted and scored according to Nolla's method and compared with normal ones'. The proportion of abnormalities in the morphology and orientation of permanent successors were counted, and the differences between men and women was analyzed. The distribution of various abnormalities in different age groups was also analyzed. Result: There were significant differences in development of permanent successors in this study compared with the normal ones' in all age groups, among which the differences were statistically significant in males aged in 4,5,7 groups and females aged in 4,6 (P < 0.05). The proportions of permanent successors involved with dental follicle broken, malposition and malformation were 78.94%, 42.1%, 8.42% and 82.50%, 38.75%, 15.00%, respectively, with no gender difference. And the highest proportion of these three were all found in 9 years old age group. Conclusion: AP of primary teeth can lead to accelerated or delayed development of permanent successors to some extent, and may also lead to changes in their shape and direction.
