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

Radicular cyst is the most common inflammatory odontogenic cyst in the oral cavity, but it rarely occurs in deciduous teeth. Radicular cysts in deciduous teeth can lead to root dilaceration in permanent successor teeth, resulting in impacted permanent teeth. We presented an 11-year-old boy who underwent decompression and drainage of a radicular cyst in deciduous tooth, followed by early orthodontic traction of permanent successor tooth with root dilaceration. The cyst healed successfully, and the impacted premolar was gradually aligned into the dental arch with favorable root development This case demonstrates that timely decompression of radicular cysts in deciduous teeth can effectively protect the successor permanent teeth. Meanwhile, for cases where permanent tooth impaction with root dilaceration has already occurred, timely orthodontic traction can move the root from the bone cortex into the cancellous bone to obtain growth space.
