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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different repair materials and blood contamination on the color stability of teeth following external cervical root resorption (ECRR) repair.
methodsThis study included 60 extracted maxillary central incisors. The endodontic access cavity and root canal preparation were performed. The ECRR cavities were created in all samples. The localization of ECRR cavities was in the coronal and buccal part of the root surface. The sample color was assessed using a spectrophotometer by a single operator from a distance of 2 mm above the cementoenamel junction for initial measurement (T0). Then, the master cone was placed in the root canal, and samples were repaired as follows: Group 1:composite resin, Group 2:Biodentine, Group 3:resin-modified glass ionomer cement, Group 4:with blood contamination composite resin, Group 5:with blood contamination Biodentine, and Group 6: with blood contamination resin-modified glass ionomer cement. Measurements were made at 7 days (T7), 30 days (T30), 90 days (T90), and 180 days (T180) after the initial measurement (T0) at the indicated area on the mid-buccal surface of the tooth.
resultsBlood contamination significantly affected the ΔE value, causing discoloration at all time intervals. The composite resin and RMGIC without blood contamination did not exhibit clinically observable discoloration (ΔE < 3.7) at T7, T30, and T90 time intervals; however, they showed discoloration (ΔE ≥ 3.7) at T180. While Biodentine without blood contamination did not show discoloration at T7 or T30 (ΔE ≥ 3.7), it showed discoloration at T90 and T180 (ΔE < 3.7). The composite resin and Biodentine with blood contamination showed clinically observable discoloration (ΔE ≥ 3.7) at all time intervals. While RMGIC with blood contamination showed clinically observable discoloration at T30, T90, and T180 intervals, it did not show discoloration at T7.
conclusionThis study reported that blood contamination of the ECRR cavity during repair resulted in tooth discoloration. Biodentine had the potential to cause more visible color change.
