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

A 53-year-old female presented with severe percussion pain and radiographic periapical lucency associated with a maxillary canine supporting a prosthodontic bridge. Clinical tests and CBCT revealed pulp necrosis and an S-shaped canal curvature with a periapical lesion. Removal of the post and core, followed by orthograde endodontic treatment, carries a significant risk of root fracture during post removal. Such a complication could lead to tooth loss, which would compromise occlusal guidance and esthetic harmony. Moreover, replacing the lost canine with an implant would prevent its use as a joint abutment with a natural tooth, as implant-to-tooth-supported bridges are biomechanically unfavorable. These potential complications underscore the need for conservative and alternative treatment approaches in preserving the canine. In this case, retrograde application of a bioceramic sealer achieved predictable sealing and favorable periapical healing in a tooth with complex canal anatomy and a crucial place, supporting bioceramic materials as effective alternatives to traditional retro-filling agents in selected surgical endodontic cases.
