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

objectiveMandibular full-arch distalization (MFD) is a popular approach, particularly in non-extraction cases. However, we still cannot confirm whether facial patterns affect the amount of limits. This study aimed to determine the anatomical MFD limits in patients with different facial patterns. STUDY

designUsing computed tomography (CT), the shortest distances from the mandibular second molar to the inner cortex of the mandibular lingual surface and from the lower central incisor to the inner cortex of the lingual mandibular symphysis were measured in 60 samples (30 patients). The available distalization space in both regions was compared between groups with different facial patterns.

resultsThe available space in symphysis was more critical than that in retromolar area: the shortest distances to the inner cortex of the lingual mandibular symphysis at root levels 8 mm apical to the cementoenamel junction of the incisor were 1.28, 1.60, and 3.48 mm in the high-, normal-, and low-angle groups, respectively.

conclusionsFacial patterns affected the MFD capacity, and the thickness of the lingual mandibular symphysis was the most critical anatomic limit encountered. Practitioners should always pay attention to the possible impacts from facial patterns, especially in the treatment of high-angle cases.
