Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as an Apexogenesis Agent for Complicated Crown Fractures in Young Permanent Incisor.
Article in Case reports in dentistry, 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
Traumatic dental injuries are extremely common in children, and trauma to developing permanent teeth can disrupt root maturation; vital pulp therapy is an appropriate treatment for these teeth. This case report describes a 9-year-old boy who suffered dental trauma while playing football, resulting in an enamel-dentin fracture with pulp exposure in the left central incisor with an open apex (Cvek's stage 3) and an enamel-dentin fracture in the right central incisor with an open apex (Cvek's stage 3). Apexogenesis with mineral trioxide aggregate was performed to preserve the neurovascular bundle, allowing normal radicular formation in the left central incisor. During a 2-year follow-up, the tooth showed no signs and symptoms, and radiographic examinations revealed no evidence of radiolucent lesions in the periapical region. This case study provides compelling evidence that the utilization of the described agent yields significant efficacy in treating traumatic fractures accompanied by pulp exposure.
