“…If the heterogeneity was not significant ( p ≥ 0.05), fixed effects model was chosen to perform the meta‐analysis (Higgins & Green, ). Heterogeneity between data sets was also assessed using I ‐squared ( I 2 ) statistics describing the variation of each data set ( I 2 < 30%: low heterogeneity; I 2 = 30%–60%: moderate heterogeneity; I 2 > 60%: considerable heterogeneity) (Alqaderi, Lee, Borzangy, & Pagonis, ; Higgins & Green, ). Forest plots were generated to demonstrate the individual and pooled effect estimates, as well as 95% confidence intervals (CI).…”

“…42 In addition, regarding the current evidence about pulpotomy, a systematic review demonstrated that MTA as a pulpotomy agent had a favorable success rate in treating carious exposure of permanent teeth with closed root apices. 44 In primary teeth, MTA presented higher clinical success rates than formocresol. 17,43,45,46 When comparing all the main materials used for pulpotomy of primary teeth, a recent meta-analysis demonstrated that the success rate of MTA (94.6%) was higher than that of formocresol (87.4%), ferric sulfate (86.6%) and calcium hydroxide (60.5%).…”

“…Considerable controversy surrounds this issue, and pulpotomy should be considered for treating a few affected teeth in which the pulp exposure occurred through sound dentin or through carious lesions in symptom-free teeth. 4,17,40,44 Pulpotomy consists of the surgical amputation of coronally inflamed pulp, and the surface of the remaining radicular pulp may be treated with a medicament or pulp capping agent in an endeavor to maintain vitality. 40 Furthermore, pulpotomy is often indicated for immature teeth, which are frequently associated with child patients, and pulp testing in these subjects is a complex and subjective procedure.…”
