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

This in vitro study aims to evaluate various surface treatments on the shear bond strength and failure mode of CAD/CAM PMMA teeth to the heat-polymerized acrylic denture base. The study sample consisted of 100 teeth that were divided equally into five groups: Group 1: denture artificial teeth (control), Group 2: PMMA teeth without surface treatment, Group 3: PMMA teeth with MMA etching, Group 4: PMMA teeth with sandblasting (aluminum oxide particles), and Group 5: PMMA teeth with perpendicular grooves. The shear bond strength test was performed using a universal testing machine and the failure mode was recorded. Data were analyzed using ANOVA followed by Tukey's post-hoc tests (α = 0.05). MMA increased the shear bond strength compared with other surface treatments (sandblasting and perpendicular grooves; P < 0.001). Sandblasting and perpendicular grooves showed no significant difference in the shear bond strength (P = 0.548 and 0.061; respectively). There were statistically significant differences in the frequencies of failure mode between the studied groups (P < 0.001). The control, PMMA, and PMMA + Sandblasting groups showed the weakest bonding. MMA application improved the shear bond strength for CAD/CAM PMMA teeth, the perpendicular groove seems to be not sufficiently effective, while the sandblasting cannot be considered as a surface treatment.
