Regenerative Endodontic Procedure of a Mature Anterior Tooth With Open Apex and Chronic Apical Abscess: A Case Report With 4-Years Follow-Up.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This case report describes the successful treatment of a mature anterior tooth with an open apex and chronic apical abscess using a regenerative endodontic procedure. A 36-year-old man with a history of trauma to tooth 11 at age 10 presented with incomplete root development and an asymptomatic chronic apical abscess. Cone beam tomography revealed a periradicular lesion with buccal bone plate loss. After biomechanical preparation using K-type files and irrigation with 1% sodium hypochlorite, calcium hydroxide was placed as intracanal medication for 14 days. Bleeding was induced by overinstrumenting the periapical tissues with a #25 K-file, and a bioceramic material was placed over the blood clot, followed by a composite resin coronal seal. At the 4-year follow-up, the patient was asymptomatic, with complete bone plate formation and no periradicular lesion or root resorption, although no hard tissue formation or changes in root canal morphology were observed.
