Relationship Between Cone-Beam CT Evaluation and Clinical Evaluation Before and After Orthodontic Treatment and the Rate of Gingival Recession: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A systematic review was conducted to investigate the correlation between gingival recession and orthodontic treatment analysis using cone-beam CT (CBCT) dental images to provide an accurate overview of the factors that can influence gingival recession. The literature was searched across several databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, etc.) for studies using CBCT dental images. Four full-text articles describe how CBCT is used to evaluate gingival recession during orthodontic treatment. The Risk-of-Bias VISualization tool was used to assess the risk of bias. In dentistry, CBCTs are used for various imaging modalities. An accurate assessment of gingival recession was made using CBCT. There were only 35 (22.5%) cases of retraction of the gingival margin after orthodontic treatment. In most studies, various types of malocclusions were treated successfully with fixed orthodontic treatment without gingival recession. Among the studies, 50% had a low risk of bias in all four areas, while one study (25%) had an unclear risk of bias. Only one study (25%) had a high risk of bias. CBCT systems have been extensively studied to show their wide application potential in preventing gingival recession. CBCT systems should be further investigated to address limitations associated with methodology and application. Dental applications of CBCT can be enriched by overcoming these challenges.
