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

Background: Root canal obturation is an important step in endodontic treatment, which is performed aiming to three-dimensionally seal the canal and prevent microleakage, reentry, and proliferation of microorganisms in the root canal system. On the other hand, microleakage eventually leads to root canal treatment failure. Sealing ability is an important property of endodontic sealers. This Materials and Methods: This Results: The amount of microleakage in canals filled with Adseal, Proseal, and AH26 sealers with lateral compaction technique was 2.33 ± 0.64, 2.2 ± 0.81, and 2.22 ± 0.71 μm, respectively. No significant difference was noted among the three sealers regarding microleakage ( Conclusion: The application of Adseal, Proseal, and AH26 had equal efficacy for the provision of optimal apical seal in filling of root canals with lateral compaction technique. The application of sealers yielded a significantly superior apical seal compared with the control group.
