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.

Abstract

objectivesThe objective of this study is to evaluate the longevity of two fiber post cementation strategies in a prospective, multicenter, non-inferiority, double-blind randomized controlled trial.

methodsA total of 152 teeth, with adequate endodontic treatment and loss of coronal structure and bilateral simultaneous posterior occlusal contacts, were randomly allocated to receive glass fiber posts cemented with a conventional cementation strategy (CRC group: adhesive system + resin cement) (Adper Single Bond + RelyX ARC; 3 M-ESPE) or a self-adhesive cementation strategy (SRC group: self-adhesive resin cement; RelyX U100/U200; 3 M-ESPE). The patients were recalled annually for clinical and radiographical evaluation with a 93% recall rate (142 teeth, with 74 at CR groups and 68 at SRC group). The primary outcome was survival rate, considering the fiber post debonding (loss of retention). The secondary outcome included the success rate of the prosthetic treatment with crown debonding, post fracture, and tooth loss (not related to post failure). Both outcomes were evaluated annually. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression with 95% confidence interval were used for the statistical analysis.

resultsFor the primary outcome (failures directly related to fiber posts cementation strategy), there were 4 fiber post debondings (2 per group), 8 root fractures (3 for SRC group and 5 for CRC group), and one mixed failure (debonding combined with root fracture for CRC), with both strategies presenting similar survival rates (p = 0.331), with 88.9% for the CRC group and 90.9% for the SRC group. For the secondary outcome (failures not related to fiber post cementation strategies), there were 8 crown debondings, 3 post fractures, and 3 tooth losses, with no statistically difference between groups (p = 0.701), with 77% for SRC and 82% for CRC.

conclusionFiber post cementation strategies with conventional or self-adhesive resin cement presents similar tooth survival and success rates.

trial registrationNCT01461239 CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Both adhesive cementation strategies led to high survival and success rates and are indicated for fiber post cementation, even after a long follow-up period (up to 106 months).
