Cemental tear on maxillary first molars related to traumatic occlusion: a case report.
Article in Frontiers in oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A cemental tear represents a unique type of root surface fracture associated with the destruction of periodontal and periapical tissues. This report presents a case of cemental tears in maxillary first molars. Based on clinical and radiographic evidence, a tentative diagnosis of chronic periapical periodontitis (cemental tear) was made for both the left and right maxillary first molars. After careful consideration, the patient postponed treatment of the asymptomatic right maxillary first molar. The left maxillary first molar due to severe alveolar bone loss, was extracted seven days later. Early diagnosis and complete removal of the cemental tear are key factors in successful treatment. Therefore, cemental tears should be considered in all teeth, including molars. Clinicians should remain vigilant when examining patients presenting with potential causative factors such as localized deep periodontal pockets, loss of attachment, or signs of occlusal trauma.
