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

Understanding recurrent injuries in the deciduous dentition and possible associated factors could help in the control and prevention of such episodes in children. The aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency of recurrent injuries in the deciduous dentition and associated factors. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted involving 517 children aged between six months and six years treated at the Clinic for Traumatic Dental Injuries in the Deciduous Dentition of the School of Dentistry of the Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Data were collected from dental records with information on sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics, chi-square test, and bivariate and multivariate Poisson regression analyses (p < 0.05; 95%CI). The prevalence of recurrent tooth injuries in the deciduous dentition was 17.2% (n = 89). Children aged between four and six years (PR = 1.917; 95%CI: 1.055-3.484; p = 0.033), those with inadequate lip protection (PR = 1.790; 95%CI: 1.085-2.953; p = 0.023), those with uncomplicated crown and crown-root fractures (PR = 1.856; 95%CI: 1.224-2.816; p = 0.004), and those with complicated crown and crown-root fractures (PR = 1.818; 95%CI: 1.021-3.239; p = 0.042) had a greater frequency of repeated tooth injuries compared to children without these characteristics. In the present study, older age, inadequate lip coverage, and the occurrence of complicated and uncomplicated crown and crown-root fractures were associated with repeated injuries in the deciduous teeth.
