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

This study evaluated the effect of different post-curing cycles on the Vickers hardness, color change, and translucency value of 3D printed methacrylic acid ester-based temporary and permanent crown resins. A total of 300 samples were printed in disk shape (ø:8 mm, thickness: 2 mm) using VarseoSmile Crown Plus (VSC) and VarseoSmile Temp (VST) materials from a 3D printer. These disks were divided into five subgroups (n = 30 each) based on flash-curing cycles (0, 750, 1500, 2250, and 3000). Surface hardness tests and color tests were conducted on both the green state and flash-cured groups. The data were analyzed using univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). The hardness of 3D printed temporary and permanent crown resin increased with post-curing time. Compared to the post-curing cycle recommended by the manufacturer, no clinically significant color change (ΔE
