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

objectivesThe study reports on the effectiveness of a ball-milled nanosized titanium dioxide composite (EB@TiO MATERIALS AND

methodsForty-nine dentine specimens were prepared from extracted bovine anterior teeth. Twenty-one of the specimens were brushed with three desensitizing toothpaste for 7 days, namely: Group 1; EB@TiO STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: One-way analysis of variance was used to analyze the percentage occluded area ratio values for all specimens (α = 0.05). Independent RESULTS AND

conclusionsThe number of dentine tubules decreased significantly after 7 days of brushing. Overall, the occlusion observe for EB@TiO
