Association between molar incisor hypomineralisation and tooth agenesis: a cross-sectional study in Brazilian children and adolescents.

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
purposeThe aim of the present was to assess the association between MIH and tooth agenesis (TA) in orthodontic patients from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Brazil.
methodsA cross-sectional study was performed to evaluate the presence of MIH and TA in a sample of 371 pretreatment orthodontic records from patients aged 9-18 years. Statistical analyses were performed using the Chi-square and Fisher's exact tests, and logistic regressions.
resultsThere was a statistically significant association between the prevalence of tooth agenesis and MIH. A higher percentage of third molar agenesis, maxillary premolar agenesis, and mandibular second premolar agenesis was observed among children with MIH-affected teeth. Patients with MIH had a 2.43 times greater chance of third molar agenesis, and a 5.88 times higher likelihood of mandibular premolar agenesis.
conclusionThere is a weak association between MIH and TA. Furthermore, the presence of hypomineralised molars increases the risk of tooth agenesis.
