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

backgroundThe clinical use of composite resins has increased substantially due to increased esthetic demands by patients, improvements in formulation, and simplification of bonding procedures. Use of surface sealants is recommended to improve surface smoothness of composite restorations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of surface sealants on the surface roughness of nano-hybrid composite after polishing with One-Step system. MATERIAL AND

methodsUsing a silicon mold, 56 specimens of 10 mm diameter and 2 mm height were prepared from Grandio nano-hybrid composite (Voco, Cuxhaven, Germany) with A2 shade. Specimens were randomly divided in 2 groups. The surface of specimens were polished with VOCO One-step system. One group of specimens assigned as control group and received no more surface treatment. Surface sealant PermaSeal (Ultradent, USA) was applied on the surface of specimens of the other group as experimental group. Specimens were stored in Ringer's solution at 37°C for 24 hours. The specimens were subjected to artificial accelerated aging with thermocycling method (3000 cycles, between 5 and 55°C) and then 100000 cycles of tooth brushing. A Profilometer was used to measuring the surface roughness of specimens before and after aging procedures.

resultsThe surface roughness changes of control group were significant before and after aging (

conclusionsThe use of surface sealants on nano-hybrid composite causes noticeable reduces in surface roughness of composite.
