Diagnostic accuracy and radiographic interpretation of pre-eruptive intra-coronal resorption among dental practitioners using eye-tracking technology.

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: Pre-eruptive intra-coronal resorption (PEIR) is a condition in which unerupted teeth exhibit coronal radiolucency consistent with resorptive loss of coronal tooth structure. These lesions are discovered incidentally on routine radiographs. Aim: To measure the radiographic interpretation and diagnostic accuracy of PEIR among dental practitioners at King Abdulaziz University Dental Hospital using eye-tracking technology. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 125 interns, general dentists, and postgraduate residents examined five panoramic radiographs, including a case of impaction, and the rest were radiographs with PEIR of different severities. In this study, PEIR recognition was assessed using a validated questionnaire uploaded to an eye-tracking device (Sensomotoric Instruments SMI). Results: The findings revealed an association between the severity of the PEIR lesion and the detection of the affected teeth. As the severity increased, the participants were more able to identify the affected teeth, and the percentage of overlooking decreased. The dentist's level of education and years of clinical experience influenced the diagnostic accuracy and radiographic interpretation of the PEIR lesions. Conclusions: The diagnostic accuracy and radiographic interpretation of PEIR lesions were affected by participants' level of education and years of clinical experience. Based on this study, PEIR lesions may remain undetected until they reach advanced stages.
