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

The knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of endodontic radiographic techniques among 384 dental practitioners, including general dentists, endodontists, and postgraduate students in India is of interest. While all participants were aware of RVG radiography, only 58.9% were familiar with CBCT applications, reflecting limited exposure and training in advanced imaging. A majority demonstrated positive attitudes toward radiographic use and expressed willingness to pursue further training; though actual CBCT usage was low (39.6%) and protective measures were inconsistently applied. The findings highlight the need for enhanced education and standardized protocols to improve the adoption and safe use of advanced radiographic technologies in endodontic practice. Incorporating emerging technologies like artificial intelligence into training curricula could further enhance diagnostic accuracy and patient safety.
