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

Background and aim: Furcal perforation is one of the main causes of failure in endodontic treatments, and these perforations have a poor prognosis. The best choice for sealing perforations is bioceramic materials. The aim of this study was to compare the sealability of four mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) materials. Materials and methods: In this Results: The highest dye absorbance was related to the positive control group (0.09 ± 0.002). Among bioceramic materials, the highest mean value was observed in the AGM group (0.06 ± 0.004), and the lowest was seen in the MTA Angelus group (0.02 ± 0.004). There was a significant difference in dye absorbance between these groups ( Conclusion: Sealability of MTA Angelus was greater than that of other bioceramic materials. The lowest sealability was seen in AGM MTA. Thus, AGM MTA is not probably a good alternative in sealing furcation perforations. How to cite this article: Mehdipour A, Heidari F, Nattaj MH,
