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

Endodontic microsurgery (EMS) can handle challenging endodontic cases effectively. However, the complexity and postoperative outcome of EMS are closely related to multiple factors such as the patient's general condition, the affected tooth, and the surrounding anatomical structures. This article draws on international and domestic medical standards, including the American Society of Anesthesiologists, the American Association of Endodontists, the World Health Organization, and the expert consensus on the assessment of root canal treatment difficulty in China. Based on the basic principles, procedures, and anatomical data of EMS, combined with long-term clinical experience, clinical epidemio-logy, and evidence-based medicine, this article analyzes the difficult and complex factors of EMS cases. This work aims to provide references for treatment decisions, doctor-patient communication, application and promotion, clinical tea-ching, and hierarchical referral in EMS.
