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
Dentigerous cysts are common odontogenic cysts that can cause significant disruption to normal tooth eruption and jaw development in pediatric patients. Traditional marsupialization techniques rely on tissue-borne appliances, which often lead to discomfort and frequent dislodgement in young patients. This case report presents a novel tooth-borne appliance, the Kang Appliance, as an effective alternative for marsupialization.
