Effect of photo-bio-modulation on pain perception with inferior alveolar nerve block among children: A split mouth study.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Local anesthesia is crucial when it comes to pain relief in dental treatment. However, needle insertion often causes non-compliance in children. Therefore, it is of interest to assess the effect of 940-nm laser photobiomodulation on pain while administering inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) among children between 8-12 years of age. Photobiomodulation pain was assessed using the Wong-baker faces pain rating scale, face, legs, activity, cry and consolability (FLACC) scale and pulse oximeter. Results show that photobiomodulation using a 940-nm laser reduced pain during injection of IANB in children between 8 to 12 years of age.
