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

Adult orthodontics aims to achieve optimal functional and aesthetic corrections. However, for several reasons, some patients will wish to benefit from a limited treatment where only certain aspects of a malocclusion will be corrected. In these clinical situations, the therapeutic objectives must be adjusted to the individual needs of the patient insofar as they can bring them real benefits. The use of digital technology makes it possible to study the therapeutic possibilities better and visualize the occlusal results before choosing the best therapeutic approach, especially in cases requiring customization. The aim of this clinical case report is to illustrate the orthodontic compromise made after the analysis of the digital setup in an adult patient who presented with a class III malocclusion but refused orthodontic-surgical therapy and requested an alternative treatment.
