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

Background: During clinical service, dental materials could experience chemical degradation due to exposure to different diet components which could affect their functions and longevity. So, the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of food simulating solutions on surface properties of two CAD/CAM dental resin composites. Material and Methods: Two CAD/CAM composites; a nano-hybrid and a resin nano-ceramic were machined into 2 mm plates then assessed at baseline for their surface roughness and microhardness. Each group was immersed into distilled water, ethanol and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) for 15 days at 37oC. The surface properties were evaluated after one day, 10 and 15 days of immersion by a surface profilometer and Vickers microhardness tester, and finally the surface morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy. Results: At baseline, there was no significant difference in roughness between Teric CAD and Lava Ultimate, however, Lava Ultimate was significantly harder than Tetric CAD. Aging in ethanol had no significant effect on roughness and hardness of both the materials. Yet, Lava Ultimate showed significantly higher roughness and hardness compared to Tetric CAD. Immersion in MEK resulted in a significant increase in roughness of Lava Ultimate at 10 and 15 days. Neverthless, it caused a significant decrease in hardness of Tetric CAD at 10 and 15 days and Lava Ultimate at 10 days. Finally, water immersion caused a significant increase of roughness Tetric CAD. Conclusions: Exposure to different storage media variably affected the surface properties of CAD/CAM machinable composites. Both materials showed greater stability in surface properties when being immersed in ethanol than MEK. Hence, the surface deterioration suggests the advisability of more research involving increased immersion periods and involvement of thermocycling changes.
