Microbial Dynamics in Endodontic Pathology-From Bacterial Infection to Therapeutic Interventions-A Narrative Review.
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Endodontic infection is a penetration of microorganisms into the dental pulp. Bacteria are the most common entities that induce an infection. This state is associated with significant pain and discomfort. Therapeutic intervention involves removal of infected pulp from the tooth and roots, which eliminates viable tissue, thus creating a tooth less resistant to mechanical pressure. Studies suggest that there are several types of bacteria most commonly associated with endodontic infections. Furthermore, it is considered that different types of pathogens could play a major role in primary and secondary endodontic infections. The aim of this review is to summarize major bacteria involved in the process of endodontic infection. Furthermore, we discuss the bacterial properties that allow them to penetrate dental pulp and hypothesize about possible future treatment strategies.
