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.
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/purpose: 4-methacryloyloxyethyl trimellitate anhydride/methyl methacrylate-tri-n-butyl borane (4-META/MMA-TBB) resin is used for indirect restorations. We aimed to evaluate effects of immersion in 4-META/MMA-TBB-activated liquid on the bond strength of root canal dentin. Materials and methods: We used freshly extracted single-rooted human teeth. After decoronation, each root was vertically sectioned into halves; their dentin walls were polished and flattened. The control group underwent dentin treatment with Green Activator. The immersion group was treated with Green Activator and Teeth Primer and immersed in 4-META/MMA-TBB-activated liquid. After bonding the resin blocks with Super-Bond, microtensile bond strength (μTBS) tests were performed (n = 6), and fracture surfaces were analyzed. Before surface treatment, dentin was immersed in a sodium fluorescein solution for 3 h, and resin blocks were bonded with Super-Bond with rhodamine B as in the bond strength test. The bonded cross section was observed using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Results: μTBS was significantly higher in the immersion group than in the control group (61.5 [51.3-66.7] vs. 33.0 [20.4-57.8] MPa; Conclusion: Immersion in a 4-META/MMA-TBB-activated liquid inhibited water exudation from the root canal dentin and improved the bond strength.
