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

aimTo evaluate the capability of Biodentine for direct pulp capping in permanent teeth. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe pulp of 11 human intact premolars were mechanically exposed in standard cavity dimensions and then capped with Biodentine for direct pulp capping. After 9-12 weeks, all teeth were extracted. All teeth were scanned using intraoral radiograph or cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan before, right after pulp capping therapy, and after 9-12 weeks on both patient real and extracted teeth for evaluation of reparative dentin bridge formation. All clinical symptoms and signs were also recorded. Data were collected and analyzed using the MedCal statistical software at the significance of 0.05.

resultsThere was reparative dentin bridge formation in all experimental teeth, on both patient real and extracted teeth.

conclusionsThe Biodentine could induce the formation of reparative dentin in direct pulp capping. The CBCT scan was the reliable modality for evaluation of dentin bridge formation.
