Color stability, Roughness, and Microhardness of Enamel and Composites Submitted to Staining/Bleaching Cycles.
Article in The Saudi dental journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 papers.
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
objectiveTo compare the effect of two bleaching systems (bleaching gel and whitening strips) on the color change, roughness, and microhardness of enamel and two resin composites. MATERIAL AND
methodsTwo cavities were prepared on bovine enamel specimens (n = 16) and restored with two composites: a nano-hybrid [Herculite Ultra (HU)] and a micro-hybrid composite [TPH Spectra (TS)]. Baseline color (CIE L*a*b*), roughness (μm), and microhardness (kgf/mm
resultsGel significantly improved the color (ΔE 4.9-8.3) and increased the roughness (Ra 0.04-0.08 μm) of all substrates (p < 0.0001) compared to strips. Enamel color was significantly improved (ΔE 5.4-8.3) compared to that of HU (ΔE 2.6-4.9) and TS (ΔE 2.0-4.9) with either gels or strips. TS roughness (0.03-0.08 μm) was significantly higher than that of enamel (0.01-0.05 μm) and HU (0.02-0.04 μm). Enamel had significantly reduced microhardness compared to HU (p = 0.0144).
conclusionGels produced the greatest color improvement and roughness compared to strips. Enamel had significant color improvement but had the greatest decrease in microhardness. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: There was unacceptable color change between enamel and the composites after the combined cyclic effects of staining and bleaching.
