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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To explore the effect of pulsating vacuum cleaning sterilizer on the cleaning quality of dental handpieces. Methods: A total of 390 newly-purchased high-speed dental handpieces were covered in the study. By the random number table method, the handpieces were divided into three groups that were cleaned by different methods-Group A ( Results: The cleaning quality of group A (100%) was better than those of groups B (89.2%) and C (83.8%) and the length of cleaning time of group A (1.13 h) was shorter than those of group B (1.80 h) and C (2.60 h), all showing significant differences ( Conclusions: The pulsating vacuum cleaning sterilizer can effectively improve the cleaning quality of dental handpieces and shorten the cleaning time. Hence, it should be extensively applied and promoted in clinic service.
