Body Height Estimation According to Deciduous Dental Crown Height in a Peruvian Sample of Preschool Children.
Article in International journal of dentistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Odontometry and body height are distinctive biological traits, making their relationship relevant in the identification of individuals. The objective of this study was to estimate body height according to the height of the crown of deciduous teeth in Peruvian preschool children. Materials and Methods: This analytical study was applied to a calculated sample of 204 preschoolers between 3 and 5 years of age (34 per sex/age group) with fully erupted upper anterior deciduous teeth (from #53 to #63). Measurements included body height with a stadiometer (106 ± 6.56 cm; 94-123 cm) and crown height from canine to canine (3.06 mm in #62 to 8.13 mm in #53) in models with digital vernier (intraclass correlation coefficient ≥ 0.781). Linear regression models included calculation of the regression coefficient ( Results: There was no correlation between body height and crown height by tooth type in the total sample ( Conclusions: The odontology method using crown height of the upper anterior deciduous teeth estimated body height in Peruvian girls of 3 and 5 years of age. The teeth are resistant to traumatic forces so these could be used as a body height estimation parameter for forensic human identification.
