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
objectiveThis retrospective study analyzed breathing patterns and age subgroups effect on cortical bone quality of the mandible in growing subjects, aiming to explore the application value of facial skeletal pattern combined with cortical bone density detection in early screening diagnosis of mouth breathing.
methodsOne hundred twenty-six participants were divided into four groups: mouth breathing group (7-9, 10-12 years old) and nasal breathing group (7-9, 10-12 years old). The mandibular anterior, middle, and posterior cortical bone mineral density (CBMD), cortical bone width (MCW), ANB, and FMA values were measured. Independent T-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the measured values. Binary logistic regression was employed to analyze the correlation between measured variables and the children's breathing patterns. ROC analysis was used to determine the ability of the cortical bone density measurements in early screening diagnosis of MB.
resultsMouth breathing had a negative impact on CBMD and MCW of the pre-mandibular (Pog) in subjects aged 7-9 years and also impacted the development of (Pog) and submandibular (Me) sites in subjects aged 10-12 years. Older children in the nasal breathing group have higher CBMD, MCW, and SNB values and lower FMA values. Single-factor and multiple-factor logistic binary regression analysis showed that FMA, MSPogCBMD, MSPogMCW, and ANB are correlated factors for children at risk of mouth breathing.
conclusionMouth breathing pattern is closely associated with decreased mandibular CBMD and MCW values in children aged 7-12, where the anterior (Pog) and inferior (Me) sites of anterior mandible are more significantly affected. Furthermore, in combination with facial skeletal pattern, it provides a basis for the early warning diagnosis of mouth breathing.
