Effect of application of dental varnishes on the properties and chemical composition in irradiated teeth.

The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
aimsTo analyze the protective properties of fluor dental varnishes in teeth subjected to radiotherapy. METHODS AND
resultsEighty teeth were irradiated with a single dose of 60 Gy. Samples were randomized, and the following groups were made: negative control (n = 16); irradiation control (n = 16); irradiation + Duraphat (n = 16); irradiation + Mi Varnish (n = 16); and irradiation + Rivastar (n = 16). Energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) analysis and Raman spectrometry were performed to analyze the elemental composition and enamel's chemical structure. The Mi Varnish group presented a lower value (p < .05) in the Ca/F ratio than the other groups. Duraphat group presents differences (p < .05) in the ratio 1070 cm
conclusionBased on these in vitro results, the different varnishes used showed a similar preventive effect on the lesions produced by radiotherapy, with none standing out over the others.
