Outcomes of Endodontic-Treated Teeth Obturated with Bioceramic Sealers in Combination with Warm Gutta-Percha Obturation Techniques: A Prospective Clinical Study.

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
The objective of this clinical study was to collect short-term endodontic outcomes of endodontic-treated teeth (ETT) obturated with different kinds of bioceramic sealers used in combination with warm gutta-percha obturation techniques. Methods: A total of 210 endodontic treatments in 168 patients were performed. At baseline, 155 sample teeth (73.8%) showed symptoms (tenderness or pain to percussion) and 125 (59.5%) showed periapical radiolucency. Periapical radiolucency was present in 125 cases (59.5%); of these, 79 showed a lesion of 5 mm or bigger (63.2%) while lower than 5 mm in 46 cases (36.8%). Regarding ETT with radiolucency, 105 of them (84%) were in coincidence with their need for retreatment and the other 20 (16%) were necrotic teeth. The obturation techniques that were used in this study were: the continuous wave of condensation technique in 75% of cases, and carrier-based technique in 25%. Four bioceramic sealers were used: CeraSeal in 115 cases, BioRoot in 35 cases, AH Plus Bio in 40 cases, and in 20 cases, BIO-C SEALER ION. Preoperative and recall radiographs of the roots were each assigned a periapical index (PAI) score by 2 blinded, independent, and calibrated examiners. The teeth were divided into outcome categories based on the following classification: healed, unhealed, and healing. The healed and healing categories were classified as success, and the unhealed category was classified as failure on the basis of loose criteria. Minimum follow-up period was 18 months. Results: The overall success rate was 99%, with 73.3% healed, 25.7% healing, and 0.95% not healed. The success rate was 100% for initial treatment and 98.2% for retreatment. Fifty-four (N = 54) teeth showed ongoing healing. All of them were retreatment cases with periapical lesions. Regarding the success (healed and healing) versus not healed, no significant difference was found between teeth with or without periapical lesions (
