1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The decision between preserving a tooth through contemporary endodontic treatment or extracting and replacing it with an implant- supported restoration remains one of the most debated topics in restorative dentistry. Therefore, it is of interest to compare long- term outcomes of endodontic treatment versus implant-supported crowns in 412 teeth from 378 patients over 10 years. The Endo group (206 teeth) received root canal treatment; the Implant group (206 teeth) had extraction and single implant placement. Strict success criteria assessed PAHI ≤1 for endodontics and minimal bone loss without complications for implants. At 10 years, success rates were 91.3% (Endo) versus 89.8% (Implant) (p=0.587); survival rates were 94.7% versus 97.1% (p=0.221). This advances knowledge by demonstrating equivalent long-term success of modern endodontics and implants when controlling periodontal health, informing tooth preservation decisions in restorative dentistry.
