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

External root resorption occurs as a physiological or pathological process following pulpal necrosis. It ensues due to a traumatic insult to the pulp from underlying mechanical and chemical stimuli. The mechanical stimuli that favour external resorption include excessive orthodontic forces generated during orthodontic tooth movement, abnormal occlusal forces of mastication caused by traumatic occlusion, pressure effects caused by underlying impacted teeth, and odontogenic cysts and tumours. External resorption can also result from chemical stimuli such as bleaching, extruded filling materials, and intracanal medicaments. Such an interesting incidental finding of a case series of external root resorption occurring in a 54-year-old male around a horizontally impacted permanent right maxillary canine and in a 20-year-old male around an erupted right mandibular first premolar caused by impacted supernumerary teeth is discussed here.
