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

objectiveThe design and structural properties of fiber posts play a crucial role in the long-term success of endodontically treated teeth by influencing their fracture resistance and failure patterns. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of fiber posts with different coronal designs on fracture resistance and failure mode in endodontically treated maxillary premolars restored with cusp-covering direct overlay restorations.

methodsForty-five extracted human maxillary premolar teeth were selected. The 2 mm cusp reducted MOD cavity preparations and root canal treatments were performed. The teeth were divided into three groups (n=15): group 1: standard conical post (SCP) (Exatec Blanco HT-glass fiber post), group 2: cylindrical core post (CCP) (Exatec Blanco HT-glass fiber post) and group 3: control group (no post applied). After the placement of posts, overlay restorations were made with resin composite. The fracture resistance test was applied with a universal testing device and maximum forces were recorded. The failure mode scores were recorded using a dental microscope. The ANOVA test was used for the statistical analysis (p<0.05).

resultsWhile no significant difference was observed in terms of fracture resistance between SCP and CCP groups (1033.15 N and 981.17 N, respectively), the control group had significantly lower fracture resistance (852.93 N) (p=0.004). The number of restorable failure modes was higher in all groups. The non-restorable failure mode V was higher in CCP and control groups than SCP group.

conclusionDifferent coronal designs of fiber posts showed no significant difference in fracture resistance. Restorable failures were more frequent in the SCP group. (EEJ-2025-02-018).
