Microleakage of pit and fissure sealings placed after enamel conditioning with phosphoric acid or with self-etching primers/adhesives.

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
backgroundIt is still not fully understood what pretreatment is best for achieving maximum tightness for pit and fissure sealings (PFS).
aimThis study investigated microleakage of PFS placed after etching with phosphoric acid or after the application of self-etching primers/adhesives (SEPA).
design131 third molars were assigned to ten groups. In Hel-P, Helioseal® was applied after phosphoric acid etching. In the other groups, SEPA were used (Dyr-AP: Adper™ Prompt™ L-Pop™, Dyract® Seal; Bea: BeautiSealant Primer and Paste; Hel-Exp: Experimental primer, Helioseal®; Hel-Cl: Clearfil™ SE Bond
resultsTightness, percentage of penetrated area, and maximum dye penetration were best for Hel-P and Hel-Cl (p < 0.05).
conclusionsPhosphoric acid etching of enamel and Clearfil™ SE Bond resulted in the best sealing quality. Methylene blue staining allowed the evaluation of more criteria (fissure shape, voids, sealant penetration depth) compared to silver nitrate.
