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

Taurodontism is a dental anomaly characterized by an enlarged pulp chamber and apically displaced pulpal floor. This disorder poses significant challenges in endodontic treatment, especially when perforations occur. The present case study details the endodontic retreatment of a hypertaurodont maxillary second molar in a 36-year-old female patient with a mesial canal perforation. The procedure employed a dental operating microscope for enhanced visualization and precision. Canals were prepared using a crown-down technique, with the perforation site managed using MTA and bioceramic material applied via the second mesiobuccal canal. The remaining canals were obturated using gutta-percha and bioceramic sealer. At the 1-year follow-up, the tooth was functional and asymptomatic, with radiographic evidence of a normal periodontal ligament space. This case demonstrates the efficacy of contemporary endodontic techniques, including bioceramic materials and advanced magnification, in managing the unique challenges posed by taurodontism.
