Jalili syndrome (JS) (MIM#217080) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder with oculo‐dental malformations. The clinical phenotype is characterized by the presence of Cone‐Rod Dystrophy (CRD) and Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI). Genetic mechanism entails a mutation in the CNNM4, a metal transporter gene located on Chromosome 2q11.2. A high fluoride concentration in groundwater has also been identified as an epigenetic factor in this syndrome. JS draws the attention of dentists due to its distinct oral manifestations. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first genetically confirmed pediatric case report from the Indian subcontinent emphasizing the clinical and radiographic features of this condition and its management in a 6‐year‐old child.

Background/Aim: The updated version of the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) guidelines was published online in May 2020 in the form of four papers. They are extensively used in dental trauma education in textbooks, undergraduate and postgraduate programs, and clinical workshops. Hence, this study aimed to assess the impact, global scientific reach, and utilization of these guidelines through altmetric and citation analysis. Material and Methods: The protocol was prepared after an expert group discussion. Dimensions database was used to derive the altmetric and citation data on April 10th, 2023. The data was extracted by using a self‐designed pre‐piloted form by two authors independently. The citing articles were further categorized into the type of study and the domains and subdomains of dental traumatology. The VOSviewer program was utilized to explore the correlation between the subdomains and the overlap of citations was assessed by creating a citation matrix. Results: A total of 552 citations had been collectively received by the four papers. The highest was seen for the guidelines for fracture and luxation in permanent teeth (FL), avulsion in permanent teeth (AV), general introduction (GI), and primary teeth (PT). Dental Traumatology had the maximum number of citing papers for each guideline. They were from 52 countries with English being the commonest language. Overall, the maximum number of citations had been received in narrative reviews (n = 104) and the majority of cited papers were categorized in the therapeutic domains. The most common subdomain for the papers that cited GI, FL, and AV was "treatment protocols in permanent teeth", while it was "awareness of prevention and emergency management of traumatic dental injuries" for the papers that had cited PT. Conclusions: This analysis highlighted that the IADT 2020 guidelines are globally popular resources, which are widely used by the researchers across specialities and are intended towards clinical application.
