Factors Related to Bracket Bond Failure during Orthodontic Treatment: A Single-Centre Single-Operator Study.
Article in Dentistry journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study aimed to investigate the influence of various patient-specific and bracket location-specific factors on bracket survival rates during comprehensive fixed appliance orthodontic treatment. A total of 197 patients (116 females, 81 males; mean age 16.3 years) having completed orthodontic treatment were included in this retrospective cohort study. Patients were treated using stainless steel non-self-ligating brackets, and the treatment duration was 23.7 months on average. The primary outcome was bracket bond failure. Potential predictors for bracket bond failure recorded included age, sex, oral hygiene, treatment duration, and several pre-treatment cephalometric characteristics such as overjet, overbite, and sagittal and vertical skeletal relationships. Factors associated with bracket failure were analysed with Cox regression, and proportional hazard assumptions were assessed using Kaplan-Meier tests. The overall failure rate was 4.4%. Bracket bond failure rates varied among tooth types and seemed to occur more on posterior teeth and on the right side of the arch. Bracket failure was more common in male patients and those with poor oral hygiene. Concerning dentofacial characteristics, bracket failure of anterior teeth was more common in those with an increased overjet and overbite.
