Treatment of a first molar with external root resorption in the middle third using endodontic microsurgery and vital pulp therapy: a case report.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundExternal root resorption is a pathologic process starting from the root surface of the tooth. At present, there are few reports about the treatment of vital pulp preservation in the tooth with external root resorption. CASE PRESENTATION: A 14-year-old Asian female visited the hospital of the present authors, complaining of the dentition was irregular. The results of CBCT revealed extensive ERR in the middle third of the root of tooth #16 and tooth #15 was impacted. After treatment, tooth #15 was removed, and the vital pulp of tooth #16 was preserved. The patient had no discomfort and was ready for future orthodontic treatment.
conclusionThis paper reports the cases of extracorporeal resorption of tooth #16 caused by impacted tooth #15 combined with EMS and VTP during impacted tooth extraction. This report aimed to describe the causes of ERR and provide a viable potion to treat ERR in selected cases. Nevertheless, further clinical trials are needed for its long-term result.
