Single-visit versus two-visit endodontic treatment for postoperative pain in asymptomatic non-vital mandibular premolars.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Postoperative pain is one of the primary problems in endodontic treatment and the ideal protocol for managing non-vital teeth through single-visit or multiple-visit endodontic treatment remains unsettled. Therefore, it is of interest to compare postoperative pain following single-visit endodontic therapy using 5% Iodine Potassium Iodide (IKI) as a final irrigant with that is following two-visit treatment using calcium hydroxide as an intracanal medicament. Seventy asymptomatic non-vital mandibular premolars were randomly assigned to two groups. Postoperative pain was assessed using Visual Analog Scale at 24, 48, 72 hours and one week after obturation. Both groups showed a similar trend of pain reduction over time. The mean pain scores were slightly lower in the IKI group at all intervals, though the differences were not statistically significant.
