Combination of Silver Diamine Fluoride and Hall Technique for Caries Management in Primary Molars: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in International journal of clinical pediatric dentistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07792551 (Clinical and Radiographic Evaluation of SMART Hall Versus Conventional Hall Technique In Children With Carious Primary Molars), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Aims and background: Combination of different noninvasive caries arresting approaches may improve the effectiveness and success rate of individual procedures for caries management. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiographic success rate of a combination of 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF) application and Hall technique (HT) for the management of dentinal caries in primary molars and compare it with conventional stainless steel crown (SSC) restoration. Materials and methods: Children aged 4-8 years, having carious primary molars with the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) score of 5 or 6, were randomly assigned to treatment group A or B. Treatment group A ( Results: There was one case of major failure in group A (93.5% successful) while no case of major failure in group B (100% successful) and the difference was not statistically significant ( Conclusion: Conservative management of dentinal carious lesions with SDF and HT showed a similar success rate as compared to conventional operative procedures. Clinical significance: This protocol can help reduce the clinical chair time and the need for deep sedation/general anesthesia in young children suffering from deep carious lesions with reversible pulpitis.
