Assessment of the relationship between impacted mandibular third molars' angulation pattern and crowding severity: A cross-sectional study.
Article in The Saudi dental journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Mandibular crowding is the most common type of dental crowding among adolescents. Aims: To investigate the relationship between the angulation pattern of impacted mandibular third molars and the severity of mandibular anterior crowding. Methodology: A total of 69 participants with impacted mandibular third molars were included in the study, and their records were analysed. Results: There was no significant association between impacted mandibular third molars' angulation pattern and mandibular anterior crowding severity, as well as no correlation between gender and either impacted mandibular third molars' angulation pattern or mandibular anterior crowding severity. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that the angulation pattern of impacted mandibular third molars is not a significant contributing factor to the severity of mandibular anterior crowding. However, further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to validate these results.
