Microbiological Analysis of Primary Molars Restored with Stainless Steel Crowns Compared to Healthy Molars.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
One of the best restorative treatment options for large carious lesions is the placement of stainless-steel crowns (SSC), but there are few studies evaluating if there is any change in the microbiota in teeth restored with SSCs. In order to asses if any difference exists, 33 children between 4 and 10 years were studied. One primary molar restored with an SSC as well as one healthy primary molar were selected from each child. Subgingival plaque was collected with a curette and cultured on horse blood agar (Columbia) and selective and nonselective media. A quantitative analysis was performed by means of the counting of the colony-forming units per milliliter (cfu/mL) grown in the nonselective media and compared with the bacterial load measured by means of a 16S qPCR with bacterial universal primers. A descriptive statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the results. No significant differences were observed in the total 16S qPCR according to sample type. Streptococci were observed in all the studied children.
