Effect of Dental Local Anesthetics on Reactive Oxygen Species: An In Vitro Study.
Article in Cureus, 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
Introduction Oxidative stress, an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant defenses, plays an important role in various dental diseases. Local anesthetics are frequently used in dentistry. The potential antioxidant activity of dental local anesthetics can contribute to dental practice. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the ROS-scavenging activities of three commonly used dental local anesthetics, lidocaine, prilocaine, and articaine, focusing on their effects on hydroxyl radicals (HO
