1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 complete understanding of canal morphology is essential to achieve successful endodontic treatment. Although mandibular second premolars are reported to have usually only one root canal at the apex, in this case we reported a mandibular second premolar with three root canals and taurodont morphology. A patient was referred to the endodontic department at Mashhad Faculty of Dentistry with a chief complaint of pain in her mandibular right second premolar tooth. The diagnosis of pulpal necrosis and chronic apical periodontitis was established. The initial radiograph showed a taurodont premolar with two roots. However, with cone-beam computed tomography assistance, three root canals were confirmed. The root canal treatment process was successfully managed with a dental operating microscope. Using cone-beam computed tomography and a dental operating microscope greatly facilitated the determination of tooth morphology and successful following nonsurgical endodontic treatment.
