Emergency management of sport-related orofacial trauma.
Review in British dental journal, 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
Sport-related orofacial trauma is a common occurrence, particularly in contact sports and among young adults, necessitating effective emergency management. This article highlights the prevalence of these injuries and emphasises the importance of proactive planning, including athlete and staff education, establishment of emergency protocols, and ensuring access to dental expertise. Immediate and appropriate on-site management, guided by the International Association of Dental Trauma guidelines, is crucial for optimal outcomes, especially in cases of avulsion. Furthermore, the complexities surrounding return-to-play decisions for elite athletes are discussed, advocating for a collaborative, individualised approach that prioritises long-term health and necessitates further research to establish specific guidelines. The evolving nature of dental trauma management in sports underscores the need for continuous professional development and a commitment to prioritising athletes' wellbeing.
