Comparison of cervical vertebrae morphology in individuals with different growth patterns: An observational study.
Article in Journal of orthodontic science, 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
objectivesTo compare cervical vertebral dimensions in individuals with different growth patterns. MATERIALS AND
methods45 individuals were taken and equally divided into three groups. Age of participants were above 18 years. Routine lateral cephalometric radiographs were collected and subjects was divided using parameters FHP- MP, SN-MP, Tweeds FMA, Y- Axis and facial axis. To measure vertical height and length of c3 and c4 cervical vertebrae the reference points were marked on acetate paper using a soft lead pencil and measured with a digital micrometer caliper. The reference points used are Cv3sa, Cv4sa, Cv3ia, Cv4ia, Cv3sp, Cv4sp, Cv3ip, Cv4ip.
resultsNo significant difference observed between three growth patterns for C3 length superior (p-0.12) and C3 vertical posterior (p-0.14). A significant difference observed in C3 vertical anterior (p-0.02) and C3 length inferior (p-0.04). A significant difference observed in length superior (p-0.02) and length inferior (p-0.01) for C4.
conclusionsIndividuals with average growth pattern tend to have larger inferior length for c3 and c4 and superior length for C4 than vertical growth patterns. whereas c3 vertical anterior value of horizontal is significantly higher than vertical growth patterns. Overall vertical growers presented smaller dimensions of cervical vertebrae 3 and 4.
