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
This study assessed the biological and antimicrobial properties of a calcium silicate-based material and calcium hydroxide (CH) when used as intracanal medications. MTT assay, osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal stem cells (hPDLSCs), cell mineralization-assay, and determination of ALP activity were assessed to investigate the biological properties. While the agar well diffusion, crystal violet (CRV) assay and LIVE/DEAD staining of dentin slices infected with a mature E. faecalis biofilm were used to assess the antimicrobial properties. Normally distributed data were analyzed using one and two-way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey test, while for non-normally distributed data Kruskal Wallis and Dunn's tests were used. The results showed that both materials were cytocompatible, but BioC-Temp showed statistically higher hPDLSCs viability (P < 0.05). hPDLSCs cultured with BioC-Temp extract demonstrated a significantly higher mineralization and more mineralized nodules than CH extract (P < 0.05). Both BioC-Temp and CH had similar antibacterial potential against E. faecalis in radicular dentin. BioC-Temp has higher mineralization potentials than CH. For the antimicrobial properties, BioC-Temp caused significantly higher inhibition zones than CH (P = 0.0001). The biofilm biomass reduction of BioC-Temp was significantly higher than for CH (P < 0.05). Regarding the percentage of live E. faecalis in biofilm, both BioC-Temp and CH caused significant reductions with no significant difference between them (P > 0.05).
