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

backgroundOdontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) can develop from apical periodontitis (AP) of maxillary posterior teeth, known as maxillary sinusitis of endodontic origin(MSEO). The treatment of OMS remains controversial. Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) plays a crucial role for treatment of AP when root canal treatment and retreatment fails. With multidisciplinary management, EMS alnoe may be effective for MSEO . CASE PRESENTATION: Ten cases of MSEO undergoing EMS are reported at the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between 2022 and 2023. Clinical and radio-graphic evaluations at 24-month follow-ups demonstrated periapical healing in all cases.

conclusionsWith multidisciplinary management, dental treatment alone may be a feasible approach for OMS(MSEO).
