Management of Acute Apical Abscess Presenting with Rapid Extrusion of a Tooth: A Case Report.
Article in Iranian endodontic journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
An acute apical abscess (AAA) is a rapid-onset inflammatory condition characterized by spontaneous pain, pus formation, and swelling, often resulting from pulp necrosis. Complications may include systemic manifestations and severe outcomes, such as tooth extrusion. This case report describes a rare instance of AAA causing rapid extrusion of a maxillary central incisor in a 17-year-old female. The patient presented with spontaneous pain and mobility of the extruded tooth, accompanied by localized swelling. Clinical and radiographic evaluations revealed pulp necrosis, an AAA, and apical bone rarefaction. Emergency treatment was initiated, including intracanal medication with calcium hydroxide and temporary splinting of the tooth. Subsequent treatment involved obturation with gutta-percha and sealer, followed by permanent restoration. Radiographic and clinical recalls up to 5 years demonstrated complete periapical healing, normal tooth mobility, and no recurrence of symptoms. Effective management, including timely root canal therapy and splinting, led to successful long-term outcomes. This case underscores the importance of prompt diagnosis and immediate, tailored treatment to manage AAA and prevent severe complications.
