Quaternary ammonium compound as antimicrobial agent in resin-based sealants.
Article in Clinical oral investigations, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride (METAC) in the physico-chemical properties, antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity of an experimental resin-based sealant. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn experimental resin-based sealant was formulated with dimethacrylates and a photoinitiator system. METAC was added at 2.5 wt.% (G
resultsThe experimental resin-based sealants presented different polymerization behaviours without significant differences in the DC (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference for initial KHN (p > 0.05). The ΔKHN ranged from 51.62 (±3.70)% to 62.40 (±4.14)%, with higher values for G
conclusionThe addition of METAC provided antibacterial activity to the experimental resin-based sealant. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: METAC is an effective quaternary ammonium compound as an antibacterial agent for resin-based sealants without cytotoxic effects against human keratinocytes.
