Comparative evaluation of the effect of nitrofurantoin and triple antibiotic paste on the push-out bond strength of epoxy resin sealer: An
Article in Journal of conservative dentistry and endodontics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Context: Following chemomechanical preparation, the application of intracanal medicaments is recommended to further decrease the microbial count. To combat endodontic infections, the application of antibiotics as intracanal medicaments has been an option for years in endodontics. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the effect of antibiotic pastes on the push-out bond strength (POBS) of resin-based root canal sealer. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight extracted single-rooted teeth were used after decoronation to a standardized root length of 15 mm. Canals were enlarged up to size F3 using Protaper rotary instruments. Samples were randomly divided into three groups according to the intracanal medicament used. Group A: Nitrofurantoin (NIT) Paste, Group B: Triple antibiotic paste (TAP), and Group C: Control group (without intracanal dressing). After removal of the medicament (endoactivator), obturation was done with AH Plus sealer. Push-out bond strength was calculated using universal testing machine. Statistical Analysis: Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by Results: Compared to the control group, the POBS significantly increased after using intracanal medicaments with Conclusion: Under the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that the use of TAP and NIT increases the POBS of the Epoxy Resin Sealer.
