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

Orthodontic treatment can be safely performed during pregnancy when tailored to the patient's hormonal, physiological, psychological, and oral health changes. The study aims to establish a safe, trimester-specific orthodontic practical framework that minimizes maternal-foetal risks while ensuring effective treatment. A modular search on MEDLINE/PubMed (National Library of Medicine, Bethesda, MD, USA) was conducted using combined keywords and subtopic-specific queries to identify relevant literature on orthodontics during pregnancy. Most studies were literature reviews, followed by various observational, survey-based, clinical, and case report designs. Orthodontic care during pregnancy must be adapted to trimester-related risks, with minimal interventions in the first trimester, elective procedures in the second, comfort-focused management in the third, and treatment of complex care postpartum. This protocol requires individual adaptation, highlighting the need for personalized medicine and coordinated input from multiple specialists to address orthodontic, obstetric, and psychological factors during pregnancy.
