Comparison of Hand Files, Mtwo, Reciproc, and Gentlefile Rotary Systems Regarding Canal Transportation, Centering Ability, and Obturation Quality of Primary Molars.
Article in Journal of dentistry (Shiraz, Iran), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Statement of the Problem: Employing different instruments may have different impact on the outcome of root canal treatments. Deviation from the original canal path and defective root canal obturation may lead to pulpectomy treatment failure. Purpose: This study compared the primary molar canal transportation, centering ability, and obturation quality of hand files, Mtwo, Reciproc, and Gentlefile rotating machines in root canal treatments. Materials and Method: In this Results: Mtwo exhibited considerably superior centering ability than Gentlefile at 2mm from the apex in the mesiodistal direction ( Conclusion: When compared to other systems, Gentlefile showed higher transportation and less centering ability. Reciproc had the highest obturation density, followed by Mtwo, Gentlefile, and hand files.
