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

Root canal treatment in canine teeth of dogs represents a technically demanding procedure due to complex root canal anatomy and large canal dimensions. The present study aimed to compare different endodontic instrumentation techniques and to evaluate their effects on canal geometry, obturation quality, and procedural safety using high-resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). In addition, the diagnostic value of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the assessment of postoperative findings was investigated. Thirty extracted canine teeth were randomly assigned to three groups (
