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

The onset and treatment of dentofacial deformities are closely associated with mechanical stimuli. As mechanosensitive ion channels, Piezo channels play a critical role in the mechanotransduction processes of various tissues and organs, including the craniofacial skeleton and periodontium. This review comprehensively examines the significant role of Piezo channels in dentofacial deformities, addressing their pathogenesis, orthodontic treatment, and the progression of related diseases. It synthesizes evidence that highlights the clinical importance of targeting Piezo channels, which can simultaneously facilitate orthodontic tooth movement, manage treatment complications, and control pain. This work enhances our understanding of the etiology of dentofacial deformities and serves as a valuable reference for clinical orthodontic practice.
