A Comparison of Internal, Marginal, and Incisal Gaps in Zirconia Laminates Fabricated Using Subtractive Manufacturing and 3D Printing Methods.

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
DLP printing is a new method for producing zirconia laminates that ensure clinically acceptable gaps in the internal, marginal, and incisal regions. A typical model of a central maxillary incisor was prepped by a dentist and scanned. The laminate was designed using CAD software version 2023. The laminates were fabricated using a milling machine (LSM group) and a DLP printer (LAM group) (N = 20). The gap was evaluated using the silicone replica method at designated measurement points. Statistical analyses were performed. The Shapiro-Wilk and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests indicated a non-normal distribution, and the Mann-Whitney test was used. The LSM group had wider gaps than the LAM group except at point E (59.5 µm). The LAM group had wider gaps than the LSM group, except at points H (51.70 µm). No significant differences were observed between the LSM and LAM groups at any of the labiolingual measurement points. In the mesiodistal plane, a significant difference was observed between the two groups at point G, which was adjacent to the mesial side (
