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

The objectives of this systematic review are to identify the factors influencing the treatment duration to resolve impacted maxillary canines and to evaluate the time duration to resolve maxillary impacted canines considering these factors. A comprehensive electronic database search was conducted within a limited time period (from 01/01/2001 to 31/12/2023). The literature was sought and collected through PubMed, LILACS, Web of Science, Scopus, and EBSCO. The protocol was registered as CRD42024476064 in the PROSPERO database (http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO). The selection criteria were based on PI(E)COS. The searches retrieved 678 unique citations. Titles and abstracts identified 264 full articles, from which 19 remained after the inclusion criteria were applied. Factors such as the patient's age, the position and angulation of the impacted canine relative to the midline and lateral incisor, the side of the impaction, and the technique used to address the impaction have a statistically significant impact on the treatment duration for impacted canines. However, the influence of the patient's sex on treatment duration remains inconclusive.
