1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThe chief aim of this study was to confirm the accuracy and repeatability of digital indirect bonding (IDB) by simulating customized clinical orthodontic procedures with personalized typodonts from the perspective of orthodontic outcomes.

methodsFive personalized typodonts were produced with 3D-printing technology to mimic straight-wire orthodontic procedures. The digital IDB was employed to position the customized brackets. After treatment, the PAR index, the ABO-OGS index and the occlusal contact area were analyzed. The matching degree between the target position and the posttreatment position on typodonts was assessed with Geomagic Control X.

resultsThe mean arch discrepancy between the personalized typodonts and the initial intraoral scan model was 0.15 mm ± 0.01 mm in the maxilla and 0.20 mm ± 0.01 mm in the mandible. Following customized orthodontic therapy, the PAR Index decreased from 29 to 1, the ABO-OGS Index was 13.8 ± 0.84, and the occlusal contact area increased 4.04mm

conclusionsDigital IDB is conducive to locating the brackets in the target position to precisely achieve the ideal therapeutic outcome of customized orthodontic systems on the personalized typodont. The customized bracket design and the digital IDB can lead orthodontics in a more accurate, visual, and predictable direction.
