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

objectiveThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of multidirectional brushing on the surface roughness, morphology, and bonding interface of resin-repaired CAD-CAM ceramic and composite restorations. MATERIALS AND

methodsTwelve (N = 12) blocks (4 mm × 4 mm × 2 mm for parallel axis; 5 mm × 4 mm × 2 mm for perpendicular axis) of lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar AG) and CAD-CAM resin composite (Tetric CAD, Ivoclar AG) were obtained and repaired with direct resin composite (Clearfil AP-X, Kuraray). An abrasive slurry was prepared and the brushing was performed according to each restorative material and axis of brushing (n = 6; perpendicular to repair interface and parallel to repair interface) during 3,650 cycles (240 strokes per minute) to simulate 3 years of brushing. The surface roughness (Ra) and the profile variation for each material (restoration and direct repair resin composite) were measured at the baseline condition and after brushing, and the mean roughness and presence of steps at the repair interface were evaluated through factorial analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images were taken to evaluate the surface topography of the repaired materials after brushing.

resultsThe mean roughness of the repaired CAD-CAM restorations was affected by the brushing (P < .05), mainly when evaluating the repair material and the interface (P < .05), while the restorative CAD-CAM materials presented more stable values. The profile evaluation showed higher steps at the interface when repairing lithium disilicate than for CAD-CAM resin composite.

conclusionRepaired CAD-CAM restorations were susceptible to wear after brushing simulation. The surface roughness of the direct resin composite was the most affected leading to step development at the interface, particularly in the repaired lithium disilicate samples. Cinical maintenance recalls and polishing protocols must be considered to enhance the longevity of such restorations.
