1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Introduction: This study investigates the influence of root length in mandibular molars with irreversible pulpitis on the success of supplemental intraligamentary injection following an inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) block. Various factors, including anatomical location, tooth type, and anesthetic solution, may affect supplemental anesthesia success. Materials and Methods: A total of 251 patients diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis in mandibular first or second molars underwent buccal infiltration anesthesia (4% articaine with 1:100,000 epinephrine) after IAN block injection (3% prilocaine and 0.03 IU/mL of felypressin). Fifty patients experiencing pain during access cavity preparation received supplemental intraligamentary injection (0.3 mL of 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine) at each mesial and distal line angle. The root length of treated teeth was recorded using an apex locator. Data analysis involved independent t-tests, Chi-square tests, and logistic regression. Results: Successful supplemental intraligamentary injection was observed in 21 (42%) out of 50 patients. No significant correlation was found between the mean length of mesiobuccal ( Conclusion: The root length of mandibular first and second molars does not significantly affect the success of supplemental intraligamentary injection.
