The Impact of Silver Nanoparticles' Size on Biofilm Eradication.
Article in International dental journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionEfficient intracanal disinfection is required for a successful regenerative endodontic treatment. Thus, this study aimed to identify the silver nanoparticles' (NPs) size (AgNPs) with the highest antibiofilm efficacy when mixed with calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)
methodsThe various sizes of AgNPs and mixtures were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. A total of 168 dentin root segments were prepared, sterilized, and inoculated for 3 weeks with Actinomyces naeslundii and Fusobacterium nucleatum. Samples were randomly allocated to 4 experimental groups (n = 28/group): 2 nm AgNPs + 35% Ca(OH)
resultsThe characterization procedure revealed a spherical NP's structure with minor aggregations. Except for Ca(OH)
conclusionThe 10 nm AgNPs (0.02%) + 35% Ca(OH) CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The 10 nm AgNPs + 35% Ca(OH)
