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

objectiveTo investigate the modulatory effects of four proanthocyanidin-DESIGNERS (PAC-DESIGNERs) on the long-term bond strength of the resin-adhesive interface, the degree of conversion of resin monomers, the chemical-mechanical properties of dentin matrix, and cell biocompatibility.

methodsStandardized formulations of PACs with a dominant degree of polymerization - DP (trimers: PM-AB and CV-AB; tetramers: PM-ABA and CV-ABB) were prepared from two sources of AB-Type PACs using a DESIGNER approach. Resin-dentin interface was assessed after 24 hours and 1 year using a microtensile bond strength (µTBS) test. The degree of conversion (DC) of resin monomers and chemical analysis of the dentin matrix were analyzed by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. The viscoelastic properties of the dentin matrix were assessed by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). Cell viability was analyzed using a 3D cell culture model. Data analysis using two- and one-way ANOVA and post-hoc tests (α = 0.05).

resultsAll PAC-DESIGNER biomodulation increased the µTBS when compared to control (p < 0.05), regardless of source, DP, and aging. The DC of resin adhesive was not negatively impacted, and an increase in DC was observed with the incorporation of PM-AB and PM-ABA DESIGNERs (p < 0.05). PAC-DESIGNER treatment also increased the dentin matrix complex modulus (153-79 MPa) and storage modulus (151-78 MPa) when compared to control (∼9 MPa, p < 0.05). All DESIGNERs decreased the intensity of amide II/CH SIGNIFICANCE: All PAC-DESIGNERs optimized the dentin-resin µTBS. The different molecular structures played a modulatory role in the chemical-mechanical properties of the dentin matrix, the degree of conversion of adhesive, and cell biocompatibility.
