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

The effect of scaling and root planing (SRP) on the success of root canal-treated teeth with periodontal pockets is of interest. A randomized controlled trial with 100 adult patients was conducted, with one group receiving SRP and the other receiving traditional periodontal treatment. Clinical outcomes, including probing pocket depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP) and tooth mobility, were assessed over six months. The SRP group showed significant improvement in all clinical parameters compared to the control group. Thus, SRP improves the long-term success of root canal-treated teeth, particularly in patients with periodontal disease.
