Antibacterial effectiveness of multi-strain probiotics supernatants intracanal medication on Enterococcus faecalis biofilm in a tooth model.
Article in BMC oral health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
backgroundTo assess the antibacterial activity of multi-strain probiotics supernatants (MSP); Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Lactobacillus acidophilus as an intracanal medication on Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) biofilm in a tooth model.
methodsSixty extracted human single-rooted teeth with single canals were instrumented, sterilized, and inoculated with E. faecalis. After 21 days of incubation, four specimens were randomly selected to validate the biofilm formation by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The remaining specimens were randomly divided (n = 14), according to the intracanal medication (ICM) received into: Ca(OH)
resultsThe lowest CFUs/ml was found in Ca (OH)
conclusionMSP has a potential antibacterial effect on E. faecalis growth closely similar to the routinely used Ca (OH)
