Influence of number of visits on the outcome of endodontic treatment.
Review in Journal of conservative dentistry and endodontics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The success of endodontic treatment (ET) is largely dependent on the application of a strict protocol for disinfecting the root canal system and may be influenced by the number of visits but remains controversial in the literature. This review provides an overview of published studies comparing ET in single and multiple visits. A search was performed in the electronic databases such as PubMed, Cochrane Library, Science Direct, and Google Scholar from 2017 to 2022. Eligibility criteria were randomized clinical trials, reviews, and studies focusing on single- or multivisit techniques. Twenty-four articles were included. The main characteristics, including healing rates, success, and postoperative pain after ET, were extracted from the studies. The results of the studies included in this review showed that single- and multisession ET are similar in terms of healing rates and long-term complications, although both treatment approaches may be associated with short-term postoperative pain.
