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

Introduction: Identification of age is imperative for diversity of reasons including disputed birth records, legal issues, etc. Several growth assessment parameters like bone age, dental age, and the combination of both have been applied for different populations with variable outcomes. It is well documented that the chronological age does not necessarily correlate with the maturational status of a child. Hence, efforts were made to determine a child's developmental age by using dental and skeletal age. The knowledge of bone age and dental age is of great importance for pediatricians and pediatric dentists. It is essential for dentists to formulate treatment plans and it is a source of complementary information for pediatricians. Aims: To assess the applicability of Cameriere's method for dental age assessment and its relationship with skeletal age (MP3) and chronological age in North Indian children. Materials and methods: Children aged between 6 and 14 years were randomly selected. Chronological age was assessed by subtracting date of radiograph from the date of birth. The six modified MP3 stages given by Rajagopal and Kansal were used for skeletal age assessment. Dental age assessment was done based on Cameriere's method. Statistical analysis used: it was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21. Results: Among skeletal age subgroup of genders the calculated dental age based on Cameriere's method overestimated the chronological age significantly. Conclusions: Overestimated dental age by Cameriere's method in North Indian children suggests a need for new regression equation for a better correlation with skeletal age and chronological age.
