Effect of curcumin on physico-mechanical properties of heat polymerized denture base resin.
Article in BMC oral health, 2024. 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
purposeCurrent denture base resins lack adequate strength and antimicrobial properties, necessitating the exploration of alternative solutions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of curcumin incorporation on the physico-mechanical properties of heat-cured denture base resin, filling a gap in the literature regarding this correlation.
methodsHeat-cured denture base resin was supplemented with increasing concentrations of curcumin (CR). Groups were designated as CR-0 (0%), CR-0.05 (0.05%), CR-0.10 (0.10%), CR-0.50 (0.50%), and CR-1 (1%), based on the increasing concentrations of curcumin incorporated into the material. Physico-mechanical properties, including flexural strength, surface roughness, fracture toughness, impact strength, and color difference, were evaluated following the testing standards. Statistical analysis involved Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA followed by Dunn's test for multiple comparisons, with significance set at P ≤ 0.05 and Bonferroni's correction applied to p-values.
resultsFlexural strength peaked at 153.80 MPa in the CR-0.10 group, while surface roughness was lowest at 0.14 micrometers in the CR-0.50 group. Fracture toughness reached its highest value at 1.80 kJ/m^2 in the CR-0.05 group, and impact strength was greatest at 6.52 Joules in the CR-0.05 group. Additionally, color difference was least pronounced in the CR-0.50 group. Flexural strength, surface roughness, fracture toughness, impact strength, and color difference varied significantly among the control group and different curcumin concentrations (P < 0.05).
conclusionsIncorporating curcumin into denture base resin alters both optical and mechanical properties. Further research is required to validate the findings and determine the optimal curcumin concentration without compromising the material efficacy.
