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

The objective of this study was to investigate the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) for monitoring changes in the structure of caries lesions overtime after treatment with silver diamine fluoride (SDF). Artificial caries lesions were formed on dentin bovine blocks. Each block was partitioned into 5 windows: one lesion was covered by nail varnish as control (LC), one sound window was covered with nail varnish (SC), one sound window was exposed to SDF (SCT), one lesion received 2 applications of SDF (L2), while the other lesion received one application of SDF (L1). Each window was scanned using OCT before SDF application, and every week subsequently, for 12 weeks after initial SDF treatment. Parameters such as mean intensity and the width of the peak of increased reflectivity located at the sample surface and the intensity at a depth of 180-
