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
Background: Root canal shaping is an important phase in endodontic treatment to preserve the integrity of root structures. This clinical study used cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to assess the shaping ability of Tornado compared to WaveOne (WO), and OneShape (OS) rotary systems. Material and Methods: MesioBuccal canals of lower molars with curving angles ranging from 15° to 45° were used in 30 patients to evaluate the apical transportation and centering ability of Tornado, WO, and OS. The canals were divided into 3 groups according to the instrumentation system (n=10), which corresponded to the systems that were employed. Centering ratio and canal transportation were assessed at 2, 5, and 8 mm from the apical foramen using CBCT. Statistical analysis was conducted using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney test at p-value = 0.05. Results: All tested levels showed no statistically significant difference in transportation and centering ability ( Conclusions: The tornado file system was proven to provide an accepted quality of root canal shaping compared to WO and OS rotary systems. All systems maintained the original canal anatomy with appropriate centralization and no canal transportation.
