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

About half of the cases of gingival recession are associated with the noncarious cervical lesion (NCCL), resulting in combined defects (CDs). NCCL negatively affects the root coverage outcomes. In addition, considering the morbidity associated with graft harvesting, soft-tissue substitutes (STSs) appeared as a suitable option for connective tissue grafts for surgical root coverage. Currently, the literature addressing the therapy of CDs employing STSs is scarce. Thus, the present review aimed to update the literature and outline the future perspectives about root coverage of CDs using STSs. A detailed literature search was conducted on MEDLINE, Web of Science, EMBASE, LILACS, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases using keywords and Boolean operators. Randomized clinical trials (2) and case reports (6) were included. None of the selected studies reported any adverse effect using STSs. Based on the limited evidence available, we cannot state that STSs may benefit the periodontal clinical and patient-centered outcomes. Randomized controlled trials are needed to assess the long-term outcomes, surgical approaches, and restorative protocols.
