Management of an Oronasal Fistula Using Microscope-Assisted Er:YAG Laser Periodontal Regenerative Therapy in a Dog.
Article in Journal of veterinary dentistry, 2026. 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
Oronasal fistula formation, associated with maxillary canine teeth, is a frequent sequela to untreated periodontal disease, and extraction has traditionally been regarded as the primary treatment. A 10-year-old spayed female miniature Dachshund was presented with an oronasal fistula involving the left maxillary canine tooth. After initial non-surgical management with minimally invasive non-surgical technique (MINST) failed to resolve the periodontal pocket and fistula, microscope-assisted periodontal regenerative therapy combined with an Er:YAG laser was performed. The treatment achieved complete closure of the fistula together with reduction of the periodontal pocket. Cone beam computed tomography at 8 months post-surgery confirmed new bone formation. This case demonstrates that the integration of microsurgical visualization and Er:YAG laser therapy can enable preservation of maxillary canine teeth with oronasal fistula, providing a minimally invasive alternative to extraction.
