Correlation between Dental Composite Filler Percentage and Strength, Modulus, Shrinkage Stress, Translucency, Depth of Cure and Radiopacity.

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
Filler content in dental composites is credited for affecting its physical and mechanical properties. This study evaluated the correlation between the filler percentage and strength, modulus, shrinkage stress, depth of cure, translucency and radiopacity of commercially available high- and low-viscosity dental composites. Filler weight percentage (wt%) was determined through the burned ash technique (800 °C for 15 min). Three-point bend flexural strength and modulus were measured according to ISO 4049 with 2 mm × 2 mm × 25 mm bars. Shrinkage stress was evaluated using a universal testing machine in which composite was polymerized through two transparent acrylic rods 2 mm apart. Shrinkage was measured from the maximum force following 500 s. The translucency parameter (TP) was measured as the difference in color (ΔE00) of 1 mm thick specimens against white and black tiles. The depth of cure was measured according to ISO 4049 in a cylindrical metal mold (4 mm diameter) with a 10 s cure. Radiopacity was measured by taking a digital X-ray (70 kVp for 0.32 s at 400 mm distance) of 1 mm thick specimens and comparing the radiopacity to an aluminum step wedge using image analysis software. The correlation between the filler wt% and properties was measured by Pearson's correlation coefficient using SPSS. There was a positive linear correlation between the filler wt% and modulus (r = 0.78,
