Objectivation of the Equimolar Mixture of Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide Anxiolytic Effect in Pediatric Dentistry: A Pilot Study.
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. 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
Aim: EMONO is an equimolar mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide. Studies investigating its anxiolytic effect mostly used behavioral scales for assessing anxiolysis in children during dental care. Observing this effect objectively in a pediatric population could be very interesting. Materials and methods: We conducted a prospective uncontrolled monocentric pilot study to assess the equimolar mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide (EMONO) anxiolytic effect in children during dental care by monitoring heart rate (HR) variation. Results: A statistically significant difference could be highlighted between the HR before the dental care and after 5 minutes of EMONO inhalation, illustrating the anxiolytic effect of EMONO in an objective way. HR variation also suggests that the effect of EMONO seems to prevent a return to the initial level of stress, even during anesthesia. Conclusion: All of the data in the literature confirm the essential role of nitrous oxide in pediatric dental care. Demonstrating the effectiveness of EMONO by objective criteria is necessary.
