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

Resin cement exhibits numerous therapeutic advantages over conventional luting materials. However, the effectiveness of the antibacterial properties of resin cement remains unclear. Nanotechnology provides a viable option, whereby the integration of nanoparticles (NPs) can potentially augment the antibacterial effectiveness of resin cement. The objective of this study was to conduct a comprehensive literature review to assess resin cement's antibacterial effectiveness by incorporating nanoparticles. An extensive search of PubMed and Scopus databases up to September 12, 2023, was conducted to identify relevant scholarly articles that examined and evaluated resin cement's antibacterial effectiveness with and without the incorporation of nanoparticles (NPs). This systematic review adhered to the PRISMA guidelines for reporting the results. The search retrieved seven eligible studies. Studies indicated that resin cement with NPs significantly reduced the colony forming unit (CFU) counts compared to resin cement without NPs. Furthermore, resin cement, in addition to NPs, significantly reduced the bacterial metabolic activity compared to the control group. The use of nanoparticles (NPs) in resin cement has been shown to enhance its antibacterial properties, possibly mitigating the occurrence of secondary caries. Future clinical trials are required to validate the beneficial effects of NPs in conjunction with resin cement in the prevention of secondary caries.
