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
Background: The aim of the study was to analyze the sealing ability and microtensile bond strength of a dental adhesive with propolis. Material and Methods: Red propolis extract was added to an experimental methacrylate-based adhesive (EA) at following concentrations: 100 (EA PV100), 250 (EA PV250) e 500 μg/mL (EA PV500). Single Bond Universal adhesive (SB) and EA without propolis were used as controls. The effectiveness of the dentin sealing was evaluated at nanoscale (silver uptake) and microscale (dye microleakage). Microtensile bond strength (µTBS) was measured 24 hours after the bonding process. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (α=0.05). Results: EA PV500 showed the best coronal sealing, with better performance than the control and the commercial adhesive. Immediate µTBS values ranged from 28.94 + 9.25 MPa (EA PV100) to 39.09 + 9.60 MPa (SB). Comparing SB and EA with propolis, a significant decrease in µTBS was noted ( Conclusions: Nanoleakage and microleakage were not eliminated in any of the groups, but EA PV500 µg/mL exhibited the best sealing ability, with superior performance compared to the control and commercial adhesive. A decrease in μTBS of AE with propolis was observed.
