The Impact of Vital Pulp Therapy on Normal Root Development in Immature Teeth: A Case Report.
Article in Iranian endodontic journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Vital pulp therapy is one of the least invasive and simplest and most economically acceptable treatment alternatives for immature teeth with pulpitis. The success rate of this treatment, with calcium silicate-based cements, ranges from 85% to 100%. Vital pulp therapy prevents the development of apical periodontitis and promotes normal root development, allowing the tooth to remain in the dentition and perform its functions. The patient was a nine-year-old boy with pain on chewing and a positive response to cold. The panoramic radiograph showed an immature permanent lower molar with deep caries. Partial pulpectomy and root pulp sealing with pre-mixed calcium silicate-based cement were performed under aseptic conditions. The absence of symptoms and the formation of roots with apical sealing were successfully achieved and observed by follow-up and radiographic control, making this treatment a viable option for immature teeth with pulpitis.
