Mapping of Global Research in Endodontics From 2004 to 2023: A Bibliometric Analysis.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Endodontics, a branch of dentistry, treats diseases and impairments in tissues within and surrounding the natural teeth. The aim of the study was to analyze the publication trends and key features of endodontic research published over the past 20 years across the globe. The quantitative bibliometric research approach was used to extract the data from the Web of Science database. The search strategy consisted of TC=("root canal" OR "root canals" OR "Pulp chamber" OR "pulp chambers" OR "pulp cavity" OR endodontic OR endodontics) and selected the publication years from 2004 to 2023. The search focused on articles and reviews and excluded all other types of documents. The study reviewed and extracted the following bibliometric parameters: breakdown of research and citations by year, type of journals, accessibility and types of documents, top publishing journals, countries, institutions, authors, most cited articles, and top keywords. Microsoft Excel (v16), R Foundation, and VOSviewer software (v.1.6.10) were used for data analysis. Our search strategy grasped 23,894 (69%) of the 34,680 documents found by the initial search. The selected articles were cited with an average of 20 citations per article, recording an average annual growth of 8.92%. Two journals, the
