Effect of self-etch adhesives on the internal adaptation of composite restoration: a CP-OCT Study.
Article in Odontology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Despite improvements in dental adhesive materials, internal adaptation remains a challenge in bonded restorations. The aim of this study was to compare microgaps and internal floor adaptation between two different self-etch adhesives in class-V cavities using cross-polarization optical coherence tomography (CP-OCT). In this in vitro study, standardized round class-V cavities were prepared in 20 non-carious human upper central incisor teeth. They were randomly divided into two groups, TN and SE, with each group receiving a different dental adhesive. In TN group, the adhesive used was all-in-one Tetric N-Bond Self-Etch (TN; Ivoclar/Vivadent, Liechtenstein), while SE group was bonded with two-step self-etch Clearfil SE Bond 2 adhesive (SE; Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc, Japan). The prepared cavities were restored with flowable composite and then stored in distilled water for 24 h. Next, they were immersed in silver nitrate, followed by immersion in a photo-developing solution. Optical comparison was carried out by CP-OCT to assess microgaps and composite adaptation at the cavity floor. A Mann-Whitney test was applied to the data, which showed a statistically significant difference in composite adaptation among the two groups (p < 0.001) with the SE group showing superior adaptation. CP-OCT is a reliable tool for non-invasive imaging that gives an insight into composite performance. Better adaptation was found with the two-step self-adhesive for the composite used in this study.
