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

This case report presents a novel, minimally invasive approach for treating internal root resorption (IRR) in a tooth diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis. A 32-year-old patient exhibited rapidly progressing IRR, along with apical radiolucency, one month after the initial diagnosis. Instead of conventional root canal therapy (RCT), a partial pulpotomy was performed using calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement with a tampon approach. Over a two-year follow-up period, apical radiolucency healed, with halting of the resorptive area. The root canals gradually narrowed, and no further pathology was detected, resembling the biological outcomes of successful pulpotomies. This case highlights the potential of tampon partial pulpotomy with CEM cement as an effective alternative to conventional RCT, offering improved preservation of pulpal vitality and favorable long-term outcomes.
