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

Early childhood caries (ECC) is a public healthcare concern that greatly reduces the quality of life of young children. As a leading factor of ECC, cariogenic biofilms are composed of acidogenic/aciduric pathogens and extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs), creating an acidic and protected microenvironment. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a noninvasive, painless, and efficient therapeutic approach that is suitable for treating ECC. However, due to the hyperfine structure of cariogenic biofilms, most photosensitizers (PSs) could not access and penetrate deeply in biofilms, which dramatically hamper their efficiency in the clinic. Herein, bioresponsive nanoparticle loaded with chlorin e6 (MPP-Ce6) is developed, which largely increases the penetration depth (by over 75%) and retention (by over 100%) of PS in the biofilm compared with free Ce6. Furthermore, MPP-Ce6-mediated aPDT not only kills the bacteria in preformed biofilms but also inhibits multispecies biofilm formation. A rampant caries model is established to mimic ECC
