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

Tatton-Brown-Rahman syndrome (TBRS) is a rare autosomal dominant overgrowth disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the DNMT3A gene and characterized by intellectual disability, behavioral abnormalities, craniofacial dysmorphism, and systemic comorbidities. Dental manifestations and management strategies in affected individuals remain poorly documented. This report is aimed at describing the dental findings and multidisciplinary management of a pediatric patient with TBRS, highlighting comprehensive dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (GA). An 11-year-old Saudi female diagnosed with TBRS presented for dental clearance prior to planned transcatheter atrial septal defect (ASD) device closure. The patient exhibited intellectual disability, autism spectrum disorder, severe communication difficulties, and definitely negative behavior, making routine dental care impossible. Clinical and radiographic examinations revealed multiple carious teeth, congenitally missing maxillary incisors, ectopic tooth eruption, abnormal root morphology, and short clinical crowns. Comprehensive dental rehabilitation, including restorative treatment, extraction, and preventive care, was successfully performed under GA following multidisciplinary medical consultation. Dental rehabilitation under GA can be safely and effectively performed in children with TBRS when careful preoperative assessment and interdisciplinary coordination are ensured.
