Frictionless Mechanics for Correction of Bimaxillary Protrusion: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The condition of bimaxillary protrusion is commonly seen by orthodontic practitioners in the course of our daily clinical work. It is characterized by both jaws being forwardly placed and increased prominence of the teeth along with lips. When there is a severe bimaxillary protrusion, it can be challenging to correct it effectively with maximum anchorage. In patients with protrusions or crowding, extraction therapy is often necessary. There are two ways to retract anteriors during extraction space closure: friction or frictionless. The present case report explains the frictionless mechanic protocol for the correction of bimaxillary protrusion using a reverse closing loop.
