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

The present study aimed to evaluate the erosive potential of four most commonly prescribed syrup medicaments for respiratory diseases. Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy combined with multivariate statistical analysis and micro-energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (μ-EDXRF) mapping was performed. Fifty-five root dentin fragments obtained from the buccal surface of 30 bovine teeth were prepared and divided into five experimental groups (n = 10): control-artificial saliva (S), acebrofilin hydrochloride (AC), ambroxol hydrochloride (AM), bromhexine hydrochloride (BR), and salbutamol sulfate (SS). The S group was stored only in artificial saliva and the other groups were treated with the medicaments (immersed for 1 min in 3 mL of the medication, three times daily, with 1-h intervals between the immersion cycles, during 5 days, 15 immersion cycles). There were a significant decrease in the Ca and P weight percentages (wt%) for dentin after medication treatments, except for AC (p > 0.05). Mineral content of dentin showed a clear gradation with increasing Ca and P wt% reduction in the order S < AC < AM < BR < SS. SS resulted in a significant increase in Ca/P ratio when compared to the control (p < 0.001). ATR-FTIR combined with multivariate, statistical analysis can quickly and reliably indicate extent of dentin erosion. Considering syrups with high-erosive potential should always follow with proper oral hygiene practices or search for an alternative medications void of such detrimental effects. Regular and prolonged use of these medicaments might bear the risk of causing erosion.
