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

backgroundThis research aimed to study whether bracket bonding using guided bonding devices (GBDs) is accurate enough for crowded dentitions in vitro.

methodsFifteen three-dimensionally (3D) printed resin model sets were included and divided into three groups: mild, moderate, and severe crowding. The resin models were scanned and virtually bonded with brackets. Corresponding GBDs were generated and 3D printed. Subsequently, the brackets were bonded to the resin models on a dental mannequin using the GBDs. The models with bonded brackets were scanned, and comparisons were made between the positions of the actually bonded and the planned ones to evaluate possible deviations.

resultsThere was no immediate bonding failure in any group. The bonding duration tended to increase with crowding severity (P > 0.05). Almost all linear and angular deviations in all groups were below 0.5 mm and 2°, respectively, and no statistically significant difference was found among the different crowding degrees (P > 0.05). In all groups, the brackets tended to deviate lingually and had buccal crown torque. Brackets in the groups with mild and severe crowding showed a tendency for mesiobuccal rotation.

conclusionGBDs provide high bracket bonding accuracy for dentitions with different crowding degrees and, thus, could hopefully be applied to uncrowded and crowded dentitions alike.
