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

Objective: Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing in Endodontics, particularly through the application of neural networks and deep learning models, that help in identifying complex root canal morphology and configurations, thereby enhancing diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. This study aimed to assess the awareness of Indian Endodontists regarding AI applications in determining root canal morphology and configuration. Methods: An online survey-based questionnaire was distributed to practicing Endodontists across India using Google Forms, and their responses were recorded. Chi-square test was used to study the association of independent and dependent variables. Results: A survey of 338 practicing endodontists and postgraduate students revealed that less than half were aware of AI models such as Conclusion: Most Endodontists do not have sufficient knowledge to use AI models and do not employ AI software to identify root canal morphology and configuration. This study highlights the necessity for proper training for endodontists to improve the use of AI in determining root canal morphology and configuration.
