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

objectivesMulti-acrylamides have been shown to enhance the bond stability of the adhesive interface in sound dentin (SD). This study aimed to evaluate the performance of triacrylamides as primers for improving bonding efficacy in caries-affected dentin (CAD). MATERIALS AND

methodsCaries was induced in dentin using a 5-day microcosm biofilm model, and demineralization was characterized by ATR/FTIR spectroscopy. Primers were formulated with glycerol dimethacrylate (50 %) combined with secondary (TAAEA) or tertiary (TMAAEA) triacrylamides, HEMA (control), or dopamine methacrylamide (Dopa) with HEMA or TMAAEA, in a solvent mixture (ethanol/water, 70/30, 40 vol%). CAD and SD were treated with a three-step etch-and-rinse adhesive, restored with resin composite, and sectioned (1 mm²) for microtensile bond strength (μTBS, n = 6) testing after 24 h and six months of water storage at 37 °C. Collagen degradation (hydroxyproline assay, n = 5), in situ zymography (n = 2), and monomer viscosity (n = 3) were also evaluated. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc test (α=0.05).

resultsIn SD, all acrylamides and the control exhibited stable or increased μTBS after six months (>50 MPa). For CAD, bond strengths were comparable to SD, except for HEMA, which consistently showed lower μTBS (<40 MPa). CAD demonstrated reduced mineral content, elevated hydroxyproline release, and greater collagen degradation (p < 0.001). Acrylamides indirectly protected collagen by mitigating enzymatic activity and exhibited higher viscosity than HEMA. SIGNIFICANCE: Multi-acrylamides effectively preserve the structural integrity of collagen and sustain bond strength in both sound and caries-affected dentin, contributing to the longevity and performance of adhesive restorations.
