Pioneering Periapical Healing: The Novel Synergy of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate and Injectable Platelet-Rich Fibrin.

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
This case report presents a novel non-surgical approach for managing a substantial periapical lesion associated with tooth 12 using a combination of injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). A 28-year-old male patient presented with pus discharge and intermittent swelling following a history of dental trauma. Clinical and radiographic assessments confirmed a large periapical cyst associated with tooth 12. The treatment involved root canal therapy with calcium hydroxide medication, leading to symptom relief. Subsequently, i-PRF combined with MTA was used as a regenerative material for periapical healing. Follow-up examinations at three, six, and nine months showed complete resolution of symptoms and radiographic evidence of lesion healing. This innovative technique demonstrates the potential of i-PRF and MTA synergy in the non-surgical management of periapical lesions, avoiding the risks associated with surgical interventions and promoting effective tissue healing.
