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

objectivesThis study investigated the fluorescence properties of the most commonly used fluorescent CAD/CAM materials for monolithic dental restorations and their suitability to perform the fluorescence-aided identification technique (FIT). MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 175 different color shades (n = 1) from 13 CAD/CAM material brands were analyzed with a monochromator-based microplate reader. Additionally, dentin, enamel, and combined dentin-enamel specimens (respectively, n = 11) were analyzed for comparison purposes. The maximum fluorescence intensity, the corresponding excitation and emission wavelength, and the total fluorescence for the wavelength spectrum λ

resultsAll assessed CAD/CAM ceramics showed virtually no total fluorescence for the wavelength spectrum λ

conclusionsApart from the mentioned exceptions, all CAD/CAM materials assessed could be suitable for the FIT, either because they are more fluorescent than hard tooth substances or because they do not fluoresce at all at the respective wavelength of λ CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study provides insight into the not yet well-known fluorescent properties of dental CAD/CAM materials. This knowledge is not only necessary to reproduce the fluorescence properties of natural teeth but also for the applicability of diagnostic fluorescence inducing techniques.
