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

Aim: To compare and evaluate root canal disinfection efficacy of three different endodontic irrigants 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 2% chlorhexidine (CHX), and 2% alexidine (ALX) using negative pressure irrigation (NPI) system with EndoVac and syringe irrigation (SI) against Materials and Methods: Seventy single-rooted mandibular premolars were decoronated, enlarged up to F4, autoclaved, and inoculated with Statistical Analysis: One-way ANOVA test followed by Dunn's Results and Conclusion: G1 (7.90 ± 6.03) and G2 (2.90 ± 1.79) exhibited the least mean RLU values with no significant difference among them. It was noted that G5 (32.30 ± 7.92) performed better than G6 (14.20 ± 4.05) significantly (
