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

objectivesThe present study evaluated the antimicrobial effects of fissure sealants containing chitosan nanoparticles. MATERIALS AND

methodsAntibacterial effect of Master Dent fissure sealant alone and after incorporating chitosan nanoparticles was evaluated on

resultsBiofilm inhibition test showed that fissure sealant containing 1 wt.% chitosan decreased colony counts significantly (

conclusionAccording to the results of this study, incorporation of 1 wt.% chitosan into fissure sealant induced an antimicrobial activity. Antibacterial effect on
