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

In this case report, we present the treatment of an adult patient who had experienced dental trauma resulting in the loss of one tooth and damage to two others. The patient was referred to our clinic 4 years after the accident, where a comprehensive examination revealed external root resorption and loss of supporting tissue. To address the patient's concerns, we developed an interdisciplinary treatment plan, which included orthodontic treatment to level the curve of Spee, reduce the deep bite, and extrude the affected teeth. After that, we extracted the damaged Teeth 2.1 and 2.2 due to their poor prognosis and replaced them with autotransplantation of Teeth 1.4 and 3.1. Before the procedure, both teeth underwent endodontic treatment, and 6 weeks later, they were built up to aesthetically and functionally replace the lost teeth. Additionally, postautotransplantation orthodontic treatment was conducted to close the donor site space and bring the autotransplanted teeth to an ideal position. The interdisciplinary approach and successful treatment of this case suggest that autotransplantation can be a valid option for restoring compromised teeth, especially in adult patients who require orthodontic treatment. In conclusion, autotransplantation offers multiple benefits, including preserving the natural dentition, avoiding the use of dental implants or prostheses, and achieving excellent aesthetic and functional results. Furthermore, this case underscores the importance of individualized treatment planning and collaboration among dental specialists to achieve optimal outcomes for patients.
