Evaluation of Cyclic Fatigue Resistance of Novel Replica-Like Instruments in Static Test Model.
Article in Applied bionics and biomechanics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: The aim of our study is to comparatively analyze the canal cyclic fatigue resistance of widely used rotary file systems, including EndoArt Touch Gold (ETG), Perfect MTF Plus Gold (PPG), Fanta V-Taper Gold (FVG), and ProTaper Next (PTN). Methods: Stainless steel canals with a 60° angle and a 3-mm curvature radius were specially prepared. The canals were shaped with each rotary file system and tested for resistance using a cyclic fatigue testing apparatus. The number of fracture cycles (NFC; K file tip separation) was measured. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA and post hoc LSD tests. Results: PTN and PPG rotary file systems exhibited the highest NFC. The NFC value for PTN was 589 ± 63, and for PPG, it was 507 ± 51. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrate that rotary file systems such as PTN and PPG exhibit higher cyclic fatigue resistance. ETG and FVG rotary file systems also possess generally acceptable cyclic fatigue resistance levels.
