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

Randomized controlled trial (RCT) represent a type of study design wherein research subjects are randomly allocated to different groups to receive various interventions, allowing for the comparison of result differences and minimizing bias to the greatest extent possible. They are the primary source of evidence in evidence-based dentistry. Recently, an international team of dental experts has published the Preferred Reporting Items for Randomized Trials in Endodontics (PRIRATE) 2020 checklist, a set of guidelines aimed at enhancing the quality of design and reporting of RCTs contextualized to dentistry. We provide a detailed interpretation of the key items of the PRIRATE checklist, supplemented with specific examples, to promote the reporting of RCTs in China.
