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

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a formulation of premixed calcium silicate-based sealer (CSBS) with monocalcium silicate (Mono-CS) as the main component. Its properties were compared with those of a control group (iRoot SP) according to ISO 6876/2012 standards for root canal sealers. Materials and Methods: The CSBS formulation consisted of two components (powder and liquid). The powder was a mixture of Mono-CS, a radiopacifier, and a thickening agent, and the liquid components were nonaqueous liquid agent and setting accelerator. Three formulation groups with different powder-liquid ratios were prepared: group A, 2 : 1; group B, 3 : 1; and group C, 2 : 1, which also contained calcium chloride as a setting accelerator. The setting time, flow rate, film thickness, and radiopacity of the three CSBS groups and the control group were evaluated and compared. Each test was repeated five times for each group. Results: The minimum values of setting time (i.e., working time, initial setting time, and final setting time) were ranked in order of significance as group B, the control group, group C, and group A. The control group had the lowest film thickness at 20 Conclusion: Mono-CS and calcium chloride can be used in the formulation of root canal sealers, and their properties, including working time, initial setting time, final setting time, flow rate, film thickness, and radiopacity, are consistent with those of iRoot SP and ISO 6876/2012 standards.
