Effect of CAD-CAM block thickness and translucency on the polymerization of luting materials.
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 6 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
aimThis in-vitro study aimed to evaluate the degree of conversion (DC) of dual-cured luting cement (Bifix QM, VOCO) and flowable composite (Grandio Flow, VOCO) under lithium disilicate glass-ceramic (IPS e.max CAD, Ivoclar Vivadent) and hybrid ceramic (Grandio Blocs, VOCO; Cerasmart, GC) CAD-CAM blocks with different thicknesses. MATERIALS AND
methodsContrast ratio (CR), translucency (TP
resultsIt was observed that, as the block thickness increased TP
conclusionThe translucency of the CAD-CAM blocks varies depending on their thickness. However, there was no significant difference in the DC of the luting materials depending on the block thickness. Further studies are needed on the use of flowable resin composites as luting material.
