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 is a critical treatment option that is often considered when conventional root canal therapy fails or when complex periapical diseases cannot be resolved through non-surgical treatment. The clinical outcomes of endodontic microsurgery are influenced by multiple factors. Among these, the size of the periapical lesion is considered a key variable that can significantly impact surgical design, operative difficulty, postoperative infection control, and tissue healing. This article systematically discusses the mechanisms by which the size of periapical lesions affects the efficacy of endodontic microsurgery, preoperative assessment methods, intraoperative management strategies, and prognostic correlations. On the basis of existing evidence from evidence-based medicine, clinical management re-commendations are proposed to provide a theoretical foundation and operational guidance for clinical practice.
