1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In response to microbial invasion of dentin odontoblasts secrete an altered calcified matrix termed reactionary dentin (Rd). 3D reconstruction of focused-ion-beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) image slices revealed helical tubular structures in Rd that contrasted with regular cylindrical tubules characteristic of dentin from healthy teeth and affected so-called physiological dentin (Pd) lying exterior to Rd. This helical structure in Rd provided effective constriction of tubule lumen diameter that formed a barrier to bacterial advance towards the dental pulp. SEM of resin cast preparations revealed altered extension of odontoblast processes through Rd. The distribution of key mineral elements was studied by combination of 3D reconstruction of focused-ion-beam based X-ray microanalysis (FIB-EDS), laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). There was a marked redistribution of calcium and phosphorous in Rd together with an increase of diffusely deposited magnesium compatible with the mineral deposition phase of synthesis of this altered matrix. Changes in tubule structure and mineral content characteristic of Rd are consistent with reduced hardness and lower elastic modulus reported for this matrix. Findings provide insight into the unique structure of Rd synthesised as a primary response to infection.
