Effect of various final irrigation solutions at different temperatures on dentin tubule penetration of bioceramic-based root canal sealer.
Article in BMC oral health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundTo evaluate the effect of 4 final irrigation solutions at different temperatures on dentin tubule penetration of bioceramic-based sealer using the warm vertical compaction method with a laser scanning confocal microscope (CLSM).
methodsIn total, 180 human maxillary incisors were prepared. Different final irrigation solutions [distilled water, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), peracetic acid, or 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-bisphosphonate (HEBP)] at various temperatures (25, 36, or 60˚C) were used. Obturation was performed via warm vertical compaction using a bioceramic-based sealer. Three horizontal sections were obtained from each specimen and observed using CLSM. The maximum penetration depth, penetration area, and penetration percentage were measured. Comprasions were performed using three-way robust ANOVA, and Bonferroni correction (P < 0.05).
resultsThe effects of different solutions and temperatures on the maximum sealer penetration depth were similar (P > 0.05). Different temperatures significantly affected the penetration area in the apical section at EDTA (60 °C > 25 °C, P < 0.05), and in middle section at peracetic acid (36 °C > 60 °C, P < 0.05). In addition, different temperatures significantly affected penetration percentage in the middle section of the HEBP (60 °C > 25 °C, P < 0.05). The effect of cross-sectional area was significant in all parameters (Coronal > Middle > Apical, P < 0,05).
conclusionsAccording to the results of this study, heating of the final irrigation solution may affect sealer penetration.
