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.

2 · The registry

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

objectivesOrthodontic treatment may be associated with temporomandibular disorders through changes in the condylar position. This study aimed to evaluate changes in the condylar position among different amounts of maxillary incisor retraction during orthodontic treatment using cone-beam computed tomography images. MATERIALS AND

methodsFifty-four participants were enrolled and divided into minimal (n = 14), moderate (n = 20), and maximal (n = 20) retraction groups based on the amount of incisor retraction (< 1, 1-6, and > 6 mm, respectively). Changes in condylar position before (T0) and after (T1) orthodontic treatment were assessed for the superior, anterior, posterior, and medial joint spaces (SJS, AJS, PJS, and MJS, respectively). Changes in joint spaces were compared between T0 and T1 in each group using paired t-tests and among the three groups using analysis of variance.

resultsAnterior movement of the condyle was observed in the maximal retraction group with a 0.2 mm decrease in ΔAJS and a 0.2 mm increase in ΔPJS, significantly greater than those in the minimal retraction group. The AJS and PJS showed statistically significant differences between T0 and T1 (P < 0.05) in the maximal retraction group.

conclusionsThe condyle may show a statistically significant but clinically insignificant forward movement in the maximal incisor retraction group, whereas it was relatively stable in the minimal and moderate incisor retraction groups. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: More attention should be paid to the signs and symptoms of the condyle in patients with excessive incisor retraction during orthodontic treatment.
