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
The use of fluoridated dentifrices is recognized as the main reason for the decline of dental caries and its effect is associated with the bioavailability of fluoride (F) in the oral cavity. High-fluoride dentifrice has been indicated for patients at high risk of caries and management of root lesions. This study aimed to evaluate the bioavailability of F in saliva after the use of high-fluoride dentifrice during the nocturnal period. Fifteen healthy adults participated in this is in vivo and crossover study in which the concentration of F in their saliva was determined after brushing with the tested dentifrices: a conventional (1450 ppm F) or with high-fluoride concentration (5000 ppm F). Before brushing, the participants collected the non-stimulated saliva (baseline), immediately after brushing (time zero) and after 5min, 2h, 4h, and 8h, during the nocturnal period (between 10:00 pm and 06:00 am). The salivary F concentration was determined using a specific F ion electrode. Regarding statistical analysis, a paired t-test was used to compare dentifrices with p fixed at 5%. At baseline, there was no significant difference between groups (p>0.001). Immediately after brushing, both dentifrices increased the F salivary concentration, with the highest concentration reached in time zero; however, the use of 5000 ppm F dentifrice maintained the higher F salivary concentration at all times evaluated (p<0.001), remaining higher until 8 h after brushing. Furthermore, this treatment showed higher F bioavailability in relation to time, evaluated by the area under the curve (p<0.001). Thus, it can be concluded that the high-fluoride dentifrice increased the bioavailability of salivary F during the nocturnal period in comparison with conventional dentifrice.
