Models of Caries Formation around Dental Composite Restorations.
Review in Journal of dental research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 88 papers.
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
The main reason cited for the replacement of dental composite restorations is the recurrence of caries. Numerous models-both in vitro, with acid gels or bacterial biofilms, and in situ, with dental appliances-have been used to study caries formation around dental composites. The literature shows that many factors may affect caries formation, including marginal gap formation, gap size, the local chemical environment, the durability of the bonded interface, the extent of bacterial penetration, and the presence of mechanical loading. Studies have also shown that what have been called wall lesions may form independent of surface lesions, though not likely due to microleakage through very small gap spaces in the clinical situation. Gap size and mechanical loading have been shown to be related to lesion severity within in vitro models, but these results do not correspond exactly with those obtained from in situ studies using restorations in dental appliances. Though not conclusive, some in vitro models have shown that certain materials possessing antimicrobial characteristics may reduce the severity of lesion formation, suggesting possible pathways for developing new composite and adhesive materials for restorations with potentially enhanced longevity.
