Evaluating Ergonomic Awareness in Dentistry: A Survey of Dental Students' Knowledge During Operative Procedures.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aim: The research aimed to explore students' self-perceptions of their clinical work and identify challenges affecting their performance in restorative and endodontic treatments. Materials and Methods: The research was conducted among 157 dental students utilizing a self-designed, validated, closed-ended questionnaire. Results: The questionnaire received responses from 157 participants, including 88 undergraduates (UGs) and 69 postgraduates (PGs). Of these, 64% reported experiencing pain during clinical procedures, while 36% (n = 72) did not report any pain. Although 71.5% of students were aware of ergonomic posture, 28.5% of students were not. Despite this awareness, 64.5% of students found it challenging to maintain proper ergonomic postures while performing clinical tasks. Conclusion: Although most students know ergonomic postures, many struggle to maintain them during clinical procedures. Incorporating dental ergonomics into the curriculum is crucial to improving students' well-being and efficiency.
