Zygomatic Screws for Severe Open Bite Closure in a Young Friedreich's Ataxia Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in dentistry, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Friedreich's ataxia is an inherited disease affecting the nervous system and presents huge orthodontic challenges affecting the patient's coordination and muscular function. Observation: Based on the rarity of this condition, the aim of this case report is to describe an unusual orthodontic treatment employed to manage a severe open bite in a 14-year-old male patient suffering from Friedreich's ataxia, by highlighting the clinical decisions and treatment outcomes. Conclusion: Managing a severe anterior open bite in patients suffering from Friedreich's ataxia by skeletal anchorage mechanics for posterior teeth intrusion is advantageous considering their health condition.
