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.

Abstract

backgroundThe aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the postoperative pain and periapical healing after root canal treatment using three different base endodontic sealers. MATERIAL AND

methodsPrimary root canal treatment was initiated in 63 patients diagnosed with necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis, cleaning and shaping was completed in two visit and different base endodontic sealers were used for obturation were selected based on the random allocation of the participants to the following groups; Tubli-Seal, AH Plus and BioRoot RCS. Postoperative pain was recorded by using 100 mm visual analog scale at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 7 d after obturation. Digital periapical radiographic evaluation was done to assess rate of periapical healing at baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months. Statistical analysis was done using Kruskal Wallis test and one-way ANOVA.

resultsThe mean difference in the size of periapical lesions for Tubli-Seal (6.27, 13.41), AH Plus (3.86, 9.80) and BioRoot RCS (4.05, 10.22) at 3 months and 6 months respectively. The mean pain scores at 24 h for Tubli-Seal (17.94 ± 11.35), AH Plus (11.57 ± 11.18), BioRoot RCS (4.73 ± 7.72). At 48 h, Tubli-Seal (5.26 ± 9.04), AH Plus (1.57 ± 3.74) and BioRoot RCS (1.57 ± 3.74) respectively. The mean pain score at 72 h for Tubli-Seal was 2.63 ± 7.33 whereas none of the patients had reported pain in AH Plus and BioRoot RCS group. None of the patients had pain after 7 d of treatment.

conclusionsBioRoot RCS showed less postoperative pain compared to AH Plus and Tubli-Seal and showed better periapical healing compared to AH Plus and Tubli-Seal at 3 and 6 months intervals respectively.
