Impacted Mandibular Third Molar: Approaches and Current Perspectives in Surgical Therapy.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Mandibular third molar surgery is a procedure that can be accompanied by several complications, one of the most important being neurological ones, resulting from transient or permanent injury to the lingual nerve (LNI) or inferior alveolar nerve (IANI). For this reason, a conservative technique, coronectomy, has been proposed. Despite the fact that this procedure seems to have important advantages, such as IANI reduction, it turns out that it is currently a non-standardized procedure, showing several limitations and requiring a precise and well-documented informed consent process because its use may potentially increase the practitioner's medico-legal vulnerability.
