Static Guided Endodontic Approach for Pulp Canal Obliteration: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 injuries to the permanent dentition have deleterious sequelae if not treated adequately. In luxation injuries, it has been observed that tertiary dentin apposition may occur and can lead to calcification and closure of the pulp space. This is commonly referred to as pulp canal calcification or pulp canal obliteration. This often presents a challenge to clinicians when endodontic treatment is indicated. Static guided endodontic therapy has been advocated in such cases and has been successfully employed as a treatment strategy in recent years. This involves the design and fabrication of a digital stent, which serves as a guide for the clinician and provides a straight path to the targeted tissue site. This article reports a case of pulp canal obliteration secondary to a luxation injury sustained due to a vehicular accident. The case was treated using the static guided endodontic approach to achieve a minimal direct access to the targeted pulp chamber space.
