Influence of Oral Habits on Pediatric Malocclusion: Etiology and Preventive Approaches.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Teeth malocclusion refers to the misalignment of teeth and improper occlusion of the upper and lower jaws when the mouth is closed, which can lead to both aesthetic and functional issues such as difficulties with chewing, biting, and speech. These challenges may further contribute to broader health concerns. One of the major contributing factors to malocclusion in children is the presence of certain oral habits. Research has established a strong association between habits such as thumb sucking, tongue thrusting, and mouth breathing and various malocclusion patterns, including anterior open bite, proclination, crowding, and posterior crossbite. This review seeks to examine these three primary deleterious oral habits, their impact on malocclusion, and effective prevention strategies to address these habits in pediatric patients.
