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 aimed to investigate the retention of strength in accelerated aging condition and ion release from an experimental fiber-reinforced bioactive flowable composite resin (Bio-SFRC), comparing it with various commercially available ion-releasing materials. The flexural strength of Bio-SFRC and other materials (Biodentine, TheraCal LC, Fuji II LC and Surefil one) was evaluated (n = 8) before and after hydrothermal accelerated aging. Ion concentrations of silica and phosphorus were measured after 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 10, 14, and 21 days of specimen immersion in simulated body fluids (SBF) using UV-Vis spectrometry. In addition, ion release and pH change were studied in a continuous dynamic system in SBF over a period of 72 h. SEM and EDS were used to evaluate the microstructure on the top surface of the materials after SBF immersion. Data were statistically analyzed using variance ANOVA analysis (p = 0.05). Bio-SFRC showed higher flexural strength before (134.9 MPa) and after (63.1 MPa) hydrothermal aging compared to other tested materials (p < 0.05). Flexural strength significantly decreased after aging (p < 0.05) except for Fuji II LC which showed no significant differences. Ion release data showed that experimental Bio-SFRC slowly released phosphate ions. Biodentine and TheraCal LC had the strongest ability to form calcium phosphate precipitation on the material surface. Phosphate ion release cannot be detected clearly from these materials. Surefil one and Fuji II LC were more stable materials without any observable ion release. The advantages of fiber containing structure and slow release of ions suggest that experimental Bio-SFRC is a promising bioactive material to provide ions for mineralization of surrounding tissues, and keeping the durability of the materials at higher level than that of other tested materials.
