Impact of treatment of molar-incisor hypomineralisation on children's oral health-related quality of life: a systematic review.

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
purposeThe present systematic review aimed to investigate the impact of dental treatment for molar-incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in children.
methodsA literature search was conducted in four databases (Medline/PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar). Two independent reviewers selected studies amongst children with MIH who had received dental treatment, with OHRQoL assessed both before and after interventions. Data were critically summarised following the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis guideline. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane ROB-2 tool, and the certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach.
resultsFrom the initial 460 identified studies, five were included. These studies included a total of 491 children aged 3-16 years (258 females and 233 males), each with at least one MIH-affected tooth. Qualitative synthesis indicated an improvement in OHRQoL in children following MIH treatment. However, the included studies exhibited potential biases in specific domains, and the certainty of evidence was rated as low.
conclusionTreatment of MIH-affected teeth positively impacts the OHRQoL of children.
