Immediate Space Closure and Alveolar Bone Regeneration Through Autotransplantation: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
This case report presents the clinical and radiographic outcome of immediate autotransplantation of a mandibular third molar into an infected first molar socket, with simultaneous space closure and alveolar bone regeneration. An 18-year-old female patient presented with a severely compromised right mandibular first molar due to a periapical lesion. The tooth was extracted, and the mandibular left third molar, selected for its favorable root development stage, was transplanted into the infected site during the same surgical session. Post-operative derotation was initiated with aligners and completed with segmental fixed appliances. One year after transplantation, cone-beam computed tomography showed complete bone healing and root maturation of the donor tooth. Clinically, the tooth was functional, sensibility returned during orthodontic treatment, and no ankylosis or root resorption was observed. Autogenous tooth autotransplantation in infected sites can preserve alveolar bone and support root development. However, it may cause intraoperative pain and require subsequent orthodontic treatment, which should be discussed preoperatively.
