Effect of Wet and Dry Finishing and Polishing Technique on Microhardness and Flexural Strength of Nanocomposite Resins.

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
Objectives: This in vitro study was aimed to assess the effect of wet and dry finishing and polishing techniques on the flexural strength and microhardness of different commercial nanoparticle contained composite resins. Methods and Materials: The samples were made of Z250 (microhybrid), Z350 XT (nanofilled), and Z550 (nanohybrid) resin composites. Each group was subdivided into 2 subgroups according to polishing protocols. Subgroup 1 for each composite underwent wet polishing, and subgroup 2 was subject to dry polishing technique. Flexural strength and microhardness of the samples were measured at two different times of polishing ( Results: ANOVA showed that the type of composite has a significant effect on flexural strength. Two-way ANOVA showed that, at Conclusion: Immediate wet finishing and polishing presented lower flexural strength. Delayed dry/wet finishing and polishing significantly enhanced the hardness of the samples.
