Factors affecting external apical root resorption of maxillary incisors associated with microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion.

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
Objective: To measure and compare the extent of root resorption in the maxillary incisors following microimplant-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) and to identify risk factors of root resorption after expansion. Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography images were obtained from a total of 60 patients both before expansion (T1) and 3 to 6 months after expansion (T2). Measurements taken included tooth length, root length, crown length and center of resistance. Resorption length (RL) and resorption length percentage (RLp), resorption volume (RV) and resorption volume percentage (RVp) and the amount of expansion were calculated. Results: A significant difference in tooth length and volume was observed in both the central and lateral incisors before and after expansion. The resorption index (RL, RLp, RV, RVp) was significantly higher in the central incisors than in the lateral incisor. There was a significant correlation between several factors: age and RLp of the central incisors, the amount of expansion and RVp of the central incisors, tooth length of the central incisors and RL, RLp of the central incisors, root/crown ratio of the central incisors and RL of the central incisors, as well as tooth length of the lateral incisors and the RL of the lateral incisors. Conclusions: Significant root resorption occurs in maxillary incisors following MARPE, with central incisors root resorption being significantly higher than lateral incisors. Key risk factors for root resorption after MARPE include advanced age, a larger amount of expansion, initial tooth length, and a root/crown ratio.
