Postoperative Outcomes in Surgical Endodontic Treatment Using Various Root-End Filling Materials for Immature Root Apices.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
The present case series describes the postoperative outcomes of surgical endodontic treatment in teeth with immature root apices using different root-end filling materials. Three cases involving young patients with discolored and non-vital teeth were treated using varied approaches: no root-end filling, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and Biodentine (Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, France). Each case included comprehensive pre-surgical assessments, conservative non-surgical root canal treatments, and periapical surgeries performed under magnification. The outcomes were evaluated based on clinical and radiographic success over follow-up periods ranging from six to 24 months. Results demonstrated favorable healing and functional restoration across all cases, highlighting the importance of individualized treatment plans, meticulous surgical techniques, and rigorous postoperative care. The findings underscore the efficacy of contemporary root-end filling materials like MTA and Biodentine in promoting periapical healing and bone regeneration while also emphasizing the necessity for personalized approaches in managing immature root apices. Further research is recommended to optimize these treatment protocols.
