Predictors of Root Resorption in Lateral Incisors Adjacent to Maxillary Impacted Canines in CBCT Images: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Clinical and experimental dental research, 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
objectivesThis study aimed to assess the predictive factors of root resorption in lateral incisors adjacent to impacted maxillary canines using cone-beam computed tomography. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn this retrospective descriptive-analytic study, 150 samples of impacted canines from 138 CBCT images were collected from the files of 12-35-year-old patients. The association between the severity and location of root resorption in lateral incisors adjacent to impacted maxillary canines and the patients' age, sex, impacted canine's angulation, position, and follicle size was evaluated. Position and angulation of the impacted teeth were measured using the OnDemand3D software. Kruskal-Wallis test, Fisher's exact test, Mann-Whitney test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, and multinomial logistic regression were used for data analysis.
resultsThe probability of resorption in the middle-third of the roots of lateral incisors decreased by 20% with each millimeter of increase in the distance between the impacted canines' cusp tip from the occlusal plane (p = 0.009). There was a significant association between the severity of lateral incisors' root resorption and sex; root resorption was significantly more severe in females (p = 0.029).
conclusionsAmong the evaluated variables, the vertical position of the impacted canine influenced the location of the lateral incisors' root resorption. The severity of root resorption was higher in females.
