1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aim Dental light-curing units (LCUs) are used at Matsumoto Dental University Hospital (MDUH). However, the time of installation of the same type of light irradiator varies, which affects the output intensity of the LCU. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of LCU with different output intensities by comparing the depth of cure (DOC) of resin-based composites (RBCs). Materials and methods The output intensities of three types of LCUs, namely Pencure 2000(Morita, Osaka, Japan)
