Optical stability of 3D-printed and milled zirconia after artificial aging and immersion in liquids: An in vitro study.
Article in Journal of prosthodontics : official journal of the American College of Prosthodontists, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeTo assess the impact of artificial aging and immersion in common liquids on the optical properties of 3D-printed and milled zirconia. MATERIALS AND
methodsMonolithic zirconia discs (N = 100) were fabricated using two methods: 3Y-TZP for milling (e.max ZirCAD LT BL, Ivoclar Vivadent) and printable 3Y-TZP material (LithaCon 3Y 230) for 3D printing. The flat surfaces of the discs were mechanically polished. Color measurements were taken at baseline, after 10,000 thermal cycles and storage in various liquids for 20 days (T
resultsAt T
conclusions3D-printed and milled zirconia demonstrated comparable color stability after artificial aging and immersion in common liquids, with no significant differences between the materials in terms of color change (ΔE).
