Administration of Antibiotics for Root Canal Treatment - A Questionnaire Based Survey Amongst Dentists.
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. 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
Aim: This study aims to assess the use of antibiotics among dentists in performing endodontic procedures. Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a pretested, structured, and validated questionnaire approved by the institutional ethics committee. It included questions on demographics, choice, frequency, and duration of antibiotics use in endodontic practice. The survey link was distributed electronically. Results were tabulated and analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: Only 6.5% of them reported that root canal treatment does not require an antibiotic regime. Clinical years of experience do not have any significant impact on antibiotic prescribing practices among dentists. Conclusion: The survey reveals issues with the inadvertent use of antibiotics, including their types and frequency, and highlights gaps in theoretical knowledge and antibiotic-prescribing practices among general dentists.
