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

objectiveTo investigate whether proanthocyanidins (PA) is capable of improving dentin collagen's biological stability through cross-linking within time periods that are clinically relevant. MATERIALS AND

methodsDemineralized dentin collagen slabs were treated with 3.75 wt% PA solution for 10s, 1 min, 30 min, 60 min, 120 min, 360 min, and 720 min, respectively. The resultant cross-linked collagen samples were subject to digestion with 0.1% collagenase at 37°C for 2h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 36 h, and 48 h. The percentage of weight loss after digestion was calculated to evaluate PA-treated collagen's resistance toward enzymatic degradation. Fourier-transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to probe evidences of PA-collagen interactions after various periods of PA treatment.

resultsThe collagenase digestion assay suggests that PA treatment as short as 10s can enhance collagen's resistance toward enzymatic challenge. The FTIR spectroscopy further verifies that PA is indeed incorporated into collagen regardless of treatment time, possibly via a mechanism involving the chemical interactions between PA and collagen. SIGNIFICANCE: This study confirmed that PA can effectively cross-link collagen and improve its biological stability in time periods as short as 10s. The use of PA as a priming agent is therefore clinically feasible and is a promising approach to improving the durability of current dentin bonding systems.
