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
objectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of pulpotomy in patients of different ages and to explore the occurrence and characteristics of pulpal calcification.
methodsA total of 77 patients who underwent pulpotomy for mature permanent premolars and molars with caries-derived pulp exposure in the Department of General Dentistry, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from October 2019 to August 2022 were selected. Pulpotomies were performed in a single visit using iRoot BP Plus bioceramic material as pulp capping agent. The patients were divided into three groups according to age: 25 cases in the adolescent group (11-20 years old) with a mean age of (15.88±2.19) years; 27 cases in the middle-aged group (21-50 years old) with a mean age of (34.59±8.67) years; and 25 cases in the elder-aged group (51-83 years old) with a mean age of (63.84±7.40) years. The patients were reviewed 1 year after the operation to evaluate the clinical efficacy and to record the formation of calcified bridge, thickness of calcified bridge, and pulp calcification index (PCI).
resultsThere was no statistically significant difference between the three groups in terms of gender, dentition, and tooth position (
conclusionPulpotomy for caries-derived pulp exposure in elderly patients could also achieve a high success rate. The incidence of calcified bri-dges after pulpotomy and the acceleration of pulpal calcification were age-related. The adolescent group was more likely to form calcified bridges and also showed more pronounced accelerated root canal calcification.
