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

Aim and background: The Hall technique preformed metal crowns (HT-PMCs) are allegedly oversized, temporarily altering inter-arch relationships. Intra-arch dimensions and leeway space (LWS) HT effects are unknown. Aim: To study single HT-PMC intra-arch effects and treated tooth dimensional changes. Materials and methods: Split-mouth, quasi-experimental, non-randomized feasibility pilot study. Intraoral scans (iTero II®) were taken preorthodontic separator placement (scan Results: Compared to scan Conclusion: One single HT-PMC increased the intra-arch quadrant length by approximately up to <1 mm. The HT-PMC-treated tooth was marginally oversized. This pilot study paves the way for a more robust study with a larger sample size. How to cite this article: AlRamzi B, AlHalabi M, Kowash M,
