Cause-Effect Relationship of Varying Bonding Thicknesses in Dentin Adhesion of Universal Adhesives.
Trial report in The journal of adhesive dentistry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
purposeTo evaluate whether varying thicknesses of universal adhesives utilizing the additional coating strategy would affect their microtensile bond strength (µTBS) to dentin, hardness, and elastic modulus (mechanical properties). MATERIALS AND
methodsNinety-nine human maxillary premolars were cut to expose coronal dentin, ground with regular-grit diamond burs, and randomly distributed into 9 groups based on 1. adhesive: Scotchbond Universal Adhesive (SB; universal), G Premio Bond (GP; universal) and Clearfil Megabond 2 (MB; two-step self-etch; control); and 2. application strategy (one, two or three coats; each coat light cured). After adhesive application and resin composite buildup, the bonded teeth were stored in distilled water (37°C; 24 h). Resin-dentin sticks from eight premolars per group (each premolar yielded 3 sticks; n = 24 sticks altogether) were prepared for the µTBS test, followed by measurement of the adhesive thicknesses at their fractured ends using SEM. The mechanical properties of the adhesive layers produced by different coats were evaluated on separate resin-dentin slices (n = 3 teeth per group).
resultsTwo coats significantly increased the µTBS (p < 0.001) of all the adhesives. The correlation between adhesive thickness and bond strength was positive for GP but negative for SB. MB did not show any correlation. Additional coating significantly increased the mechanical properties of GP (p < 0.05) but did not affect SB and MB (p < 0.05).
conclusionAn additional adhesive coating over the manufacturers' recommendations improved the bond strength of all the adhesives tested. However, the increased mechanical properties of the adhesives with additional curing was material dependent.
