Glass ionomer polyalkenoate cements and related materials: past, present and future.
Review in British dental journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The aim of this article is to review the development of glass ionomer cements (GICs) over the last 40 years and look critically at both their clinical advantages and disadvantages. Primarily, it will explore the future development of both GICs and related ion-releasing materials in relation to improved mechanical properties, capability to prevent secondary caries and promoting remineralisation of hard carious dentine left after minimal cavity preparation procedures, including atraumatic restorative treatment. This article will also introduce new materials with a focus on degradable fluorine-containing glass fillers, including alkasite glasses and fluorine-containing bioactive glasses, that have the capability to raise the pH and promote remineralisation with the potential for fluorapatite formation.
