The effect of birth weight on tooth development by Demirjian's method.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate the impact of birth weight on tooth development in children aged 7-8 years. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis retrospective cohort study comprised 75 children born at Bint Al-Huda Hospital, Bojnurd, in 2013-2014. The children were categorized into three groups based on their birth weight: Normal Birth Weight (NBW), Low Birth Weight (LBW), and Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW). Panoramic radiographs were taken for orthodontic examination, and Demirjian's 8-teeth method was employed to determine dental age. The study compared dental and chronological age within each group. Data analysis utilized SPSS software version 26, employing One-way ANOVA and chi-square tests. Statistical significance was set at P ≤ 0.05.
resultsThe mean difference in dental and chronological age for Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW) children was 0.22 ± 0.44 years, for Low Birth Weight (LBW) children it was 0.19 ± 0.45 years, and for Normal Birth Weight (NBW) children, it was 0.08 ± 0.46 years. Although the mean difference decreased with increasing birth weight, this trend did not achieve statistical significance (P = 0.55). Furthermore, no significant differences were observed between the weight groups (P = 0.529) or genders (P = 0.191).
