Efficacy of leukocyte-platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) plug in accelerating the maxillary canine retraction in young adults: A split mouth randomized controlled trial.

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
Objective: To evaluate the effect of the L-PRF plug on the rate of maxillary canine retraction during the comprehensive orthodontic treatment. Materials and methods: The present split-mouth randomized controlled trial included 15 female patients (age range, 18-25 yrs) requiring all 1st premolars extraction for correction of their malocclusion. Right and left sides of the maxillary arch in each patient were randomly allocated to control and experimental sides. Simultaneous canine retraction was initiated immediately after the extraction of 1st premolars on the control side, and placement of L-PRF plugs on the experimental side 1st premolar extraction socket. The amount of canine retraction was evaluated from 3D models of the maxillary study models prepared immediately before (T Results: Of 15 enrolled, one participant lost during the follow-up. The data of fourteen maxillary arches (14 experimental and 14 control sides) were analyzed. During the first four weeks of observation, the experimental sides had more canine retraction of 0.25 mm (P = 0.001). The mean concentrations of IL-6 at mesial and distal aspects of experimental and control side canines were comparable (P > 0.05). There was a significant increase in IL-6 concentration in the distal compared to the mesial aspects of canine in experimental sides at T Conclusion: Although the application of L-PRF accelerated the maxillary canine retraction by 0.32 mm throughout the eight weeks, with most of the acceleration occurring in the first four weeks, but it was not clinically significant in decreasing the total duration of orthodontic treatment.
