Investigation of the Etiology of Molar Incisor Hypomineralization in Children Residing in Konya Province and Surrounding Areas, Türkiye.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAccording to the literature, hypomineralization of molars and incisors is a multifactorial condition that depends on both genetic and environmental factors. This study aims to diagnose Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) cases with a new index that better defines the defect and to contribute to the literature by identifying possible etiological factors.
methodsThis research was conducted with children aged 8-11 years old and their parents from Konya province and surrounding provinces. While children who were diagnosed with MIH as a result of the examination constituted the study group, children with no findings of MIH during intraoral examination were included in the control group. Between February and October 2020, 104 patients for the study group and 104 patients for the control group were reached, and a survey was administered to a total of 208 parents.
resultsAsthma, pneumonia, lower respiratory tract infections, diarrhea, a fever, and febrile convulsions between the ages of 0-4 have been found to be related to MIH (
conclusionsThe association between medical diseases in children and enamel defect formation draws attention to the importance of pediatricians in the early diagnosis of MIH cases. Pediatricians can be very helpful in informing parents of children with health problems about possible dental defects and referring them to a pediatric dentist.
