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

Root resorption is one of the leading complications that follows orthodontic treatment. It's an inflammatory process involving ischemic necrosis. Therefore, it is called orthodontically induced inflammatory root resorption (OIIRR). The purpose of this report is to present a case study of a patient in her 20s who experienced internal root resorption on two maxillary central incisors as a result of orthodontic treatment. Mineral trioxide aggregates (MTAs) were applied to the root resorption lesion to promote remineralization. A clinical and radiographic examination revealed that no radiolucency related to the resorptive lesion was found without any pathological symptoms after a 3-year follow-up.
