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

backgroundThe study evaluates the position and displacement tendency of unerupted maxillary canines in orthodontic patients with non-syndromic craniofacial disorders (CD) compared to a control (C) group.

methodsCanine position and displacement tendency were evaluated using panoramic radiographs (PAN) examined with parameters such as sector classification (sectors 1-5) and inclination angles (α and β). The displacement tendency was defined as the positioning of the tip in sectors 1 or 2, as well as its combination with increased angles (α > 30° and β > 39°). In addition, the correlation of the tooth position and agenesis, cleft side, and sex was assessed.

resultsA total of 116 pre-treatment PAN, divided into the CD group (n = 50; mean age 8.32 ± 2.27 years) and the C group (n = 66; mean age 10.80 ± 2.82 years), were evaluated in this study. The sector classification showed no displacement tendency in both groups. Inclination angles α/β showed a statistically significant higher displacement tendency (p = 0.01) of the CD group (n = 5) on the right side, compared to healthy subjects (n = 1). Male CD patients had a statistically significant higher displacement tendency on the right side (p = 0.03). A statistically significant correlation between cleft and non-cleft-side (p = 0.03) was found.

conclusionPatients with CD showed a statistically significant higher displacement tendency of the maxillary canine affected by the cleft side. The inclination angle was found to be the better predictor compared to the sector classification which should be considered in the orthodontic treatment planning.
