Evaluation of Factors Affecting Clinical Outcomes of Full Mouth Rehabilitation Under General Anaesthesia for Children With Early Childhood Caries: A Prospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
aimThis study was designed to evaluate the factors affecting the clinical outcomes of full mouth rehabilitation under general anaesthesia for children with early childhood caries (ECCs). MATERIALS AND
methodsA prospective cohort of 200 children with early childhood caries and requiring dental rehabilitation under general anaesthesia was evaluated and treated. Children were recalled at six-month intervals for a period of two years and evaluated for the recurrence of caries and the need for repeat treatment of failed cases.
results86.5% of the patients adhered to the six-month recall visits for 24 months. An overall caries recurrence rate of 14.5% was seen. Children who did not adhere to the follow-up plan and visited ad hoc had the highest caries recurrence rate (88%).
conclusionGood compliance with postoperative instructions after full mouth rehabilitation resulted in good oral hygiene and a limited recurrence of caries. Patients with poor compliance with recall visits and postoperative instructions had high rates of caries recurrence. Rehabilitation under general anaesthesia can be considered a viable treatment option for children diagnosed with early childhood caries.
