Patient-Reported Outcomes Following Loss of Permanent Incisors due to Traumatic Dental Injuries: A Retrospective Cross-Sectional Pilot Cohort Study.

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
purposeThis study aimed to investigate the effects of trauma-related tooth loss before age 18 years on adolescents and young adults. MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-three patients with permanent incisor loss due to traumatic dental injury (TDI) completed a newly developed pilot, TDI-specific questionnaire evaluating their experiences following the loss of a permanent incisor. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze responses, and multiple linear regression was used to examine the effects of age and sex.
resultsPatient-reported outcome measures indicated that 74.2% of the respondents reported an impact of tooth loss on their appearance. The mean score for perceived esthetic impact was 3.62 on a 0-10 scale. Despite treatment completion, 78.5% of patients reported recurring thoughts regarding their tooth loss, and 81.7% indicated that, to varying degrees, their tooth loss imposed limitations on their social interactions. Dissatisfaction with temporary tooth replacements was reported by several patients. Among the 93 patients, 58 (62.3%) had received their permanent tooth placement and expressed very high satisfaction with this solution (mean score: 9.05 on a 0-10 scale). Overall, 92.5% of the participants reported satisfaction with the communication during the treatment. Sex significantly affected the patient responses regarding esthetic appearance and satisfaction with the course of treatment.
conclusionThis patient-reported outcome-based study indicates that trauma-related tooth loss occurring at a young age adversely affects the oral health-related quality of life of adolescents and young adults, even after treatment completion, thereby impacting their overall quality of life.
