Outcomes and prognostic factors of endodontically treated teeth filled with calcium silicate- or epoxy resin-based root canal sealers: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in International endodontic journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
aimThe objectives of this study were to compare the clinical outcomes of root canal treatment between calcium silicate-based sealer using the cold hydraulic condensation technique and epoxy resin-based sealer using warm vertical compaction and to identify the prognostic factors affecting the outcomes of both obturation techniques. METHODOLOGY: Dental records and radiographs of the teeth that received root canal treatment with calcium silicate-based sealer using the cold hydraulic condensation technique or epoxy resin-based sealer using warm vertical compaction during 2015-2021 were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. The cases were matched between the two groups based on four factors: primary root canal treatment or retreatment, tooth type, periapical lesion and its size and extension of root canal filling. The success rates of root canal treatment between two sealers/obturation techniques were analysed. The incidence and resorption of extruded sealer were evaluated using the McNemar's test. Generalized estimated equations were used to evaluate any prognostic factors.
resultsThe median recall period of this study was 15 months. A total of 234 teeth, comprising 117 cases in each sealer/obturation group, were included. No significant difference was found in the success rates between the calcium silicate-based sealer using the cold hydraulic condensation technique group (91.5%) and the epoxy resin-based sealer using the warm vertical compaction group (94.9%). The incidence of sealer extrusion for the calcium silicate-based sealer (27.6%) did not significantly differ from that of the epoxy resin-based sealer (36.2%), with both sealers typically demonstrating no resorption at recalls. No prognostic factors related to the success rate of either technique were detected.
conclusionThe study findings suggest no difference in the success rate between calcium silicate-based sealer and epoxy resin-based sealer. The study did not identify any prognostic factors that significantly influenced the outcomes of the endodontic treatments.
