Endocrowns: Indications, Preparation Techniques, and Material Selection.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
Endodontic treatment is often necessary in the field of dentistry. As the tooth structure is lost during such treatment, the tooth may become weaker and lose some of its mechanical qualities. Endodontically treated posterior teeth require cuspal coverage because of their anatomical features. Endocrowns are regarded as a suitable choice for restoring teeth that have undergone endodontic treatment. These restorations are recommended when there is a substantial loss of tooth structure, restricted interocclusal space, or a short clinical crown. They are also contraindicated in case of severe loss of tooth structure where adhesion is not applicable. Endocrowns require a specific preparation design that is distinct from the conventional crown. They can be manufactured by two methods: heat pressing or computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM). Moreover, several materials have been used in fabricating endocrown restoration. Lithium disilicate glass-ceramic is the most recommended material as it possesses excellent mechanical properties and esthetic results with the ability to bond to tooth structure. In conclusion, several kinds of literature recommend using them for molars. Further research is needed to evaluate this technique for premolar and anterior teeth.
