Conservative Management of Pulpitis in a Mature Permanent Molar Using Partial Pulpotomy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Vital pulp therapy (VPT) has emerged as a conservative alternative to conventional root canal therapy (RCT) for the management of teeth with pulp exposure. Advances in bioactive materials have expanded its indications, allowing its application in mature permanent teeth presenting with symptoms traditionally associated with irreversible pulpitis. A 36-year-old female presented with severe pain in the right mandibular first molar. A partial pulpotomy using a bioceramic material was performed, followed by composite restoration. The patient became asymptomatic shortly after treatment. At 11 months, clinical and radiographic outcomes were favourable, and minor occlusal discomfort was resolved following occlusal adjustment. Partial pulpotomy using bioceramic materials may represent a predictable and minimally invasive treatment option for mature permanent teeth diagnosed with symptomatic pulpitis. Proper case selection, strict isolation, effective coronal sealing, and occlusal evaluation are essential for favourable outcomes.
