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

backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the long-term color stability of single-shade composite resins when exposed to simulated intraoral conditions, including staining, brushing, and thermal cycling. Additionally, the study compared the performance of spectrophotometry and cross-polarized (CP) photography in detecting color changes, focusing on their applicability for both clinical and research purposes. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study employed five single-shade composite resins (Omnichroma; OMN, Zenchroma; ZNC, Vittra APS Unique; VTR, Charisma One; CHR, and Essentia Universal; ESU) and one multi-shade composite resin (Filtek Z550: FLT) for testing. The specimens were subjected to thermal cycling, staining, and brushing to simulate intraoral conditions. Color measurements were conducted using a spectrophotometer and CP photography at the initial baseline (t

resultsAll composite groups demonstrated statistically significant color changes following the simulated conditions (p < 0.001). The CHR group exhibited the highest values for both ΔE

conclusionsSingle-shade composites display a high susceptibility to significant discoloration when subjected to simulated intraoral conditions, with CHR exhibiting the most pronounced alterations. Both spectrophotometry and CP photography were effective in assessing color stability, with CP photography offering a practical alternative for clinical settings. These findings offer insight into the aesthetic durability of single-shade composites and underscore the importance of long-term evaluations.
