Cleaning Ability of Gentlefile Rotary System Compared with Three Alternative Brands.
Article in Iranian endodontic journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: In this study, the cleaning ability of a stainless-steel rotary instrument called Gentlefile, was compared with three nickel-titanium rotary instruments. Materials and Methods: In this Results: The Gentlefile demonstrated a promising outcome in smear layer clearance and debris removal compared with the other three rotary systems ( Conclusion: The Gentlefile rotary system can be capable of cleaning the apical third of root canals more than the other three groups including Protaper Universal, RaCe, and XP-Endo Finisher.
