The Effects of Sodium Hypochlorite on Organic Matters: Influences of Concentration, Renewal Frequency and Contact Area.
Article in Iranian endodontic journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Introduction: Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) reacts mainly with proteins and its effectiveness depends on the substances chemical reactivity. It has been reported that volume, concentration, renewal, time, temperature and contact area affect the diffusion of NaOCl in the root canal. However, the relationship between some of these factors is not clear. The purpose of this study was to test the effect of volume, contact area, concentration and renewal frequency of 2.5% and 9.8% NaOCl solutions on their organic matter dissolving-capacity. Methods and Materials: Pieces of gelatine (18% w/v) with standardized weight, form and structure were either fully or partially exposed to a 2.5% or 9.8% NaOCl solution. In three successive studies, biological dissolution-capacity of NaOCl was tested under different conditions. In experiment 1 the effect of volume/time, in experiment 2 the time/concentration/renewal frequency and in experiment 3 the contact area/renewal frequency/concentration/time of 2.5% or 9.8% NaOCl solutions on dissolving-capacity of organic matter were studied. The weight loss of gelatine pieces over time was registered. The non-parametric tests of Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis at the 5% threshold were used for statistical analysis. Results: The differences between the two concentrations of NaOCl solution (2.5% and 9.8%) are statistically significant in the effects of different volumes on total dissolution time ( Conclusion: This
