1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

statement of problemThe 3D-printed denture base resin needed reinforcement. PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of adding nano ZrO2 and nano TiO2 on microbial colonization and patient satisfaction with 3D-printed maxillary complete dentures. MATERIALS AND

methodsTwenty-four patients who needed complete dentures were randomly distributed into three equal groups. Group I: Patients used maxillary complete dentures 3D printed without the addition of any additives. Group II: Patients used maxillary complete dentures 3D after reinforcement by Nano-ZrO

resultsNo significant differences in microbial colonization were detected among the three groups concerning Staphylococcus aureus in the palatal mucosa. There was a significant difference between Group I, the lowest antimicrobial group, and the other groups, while between Groups II and III, there was no significant difference in the number of S. aureus on the fitting surface of the denture. There were significant differences between Group II, the highest antifungal group, and the other groups at 12 and 18 months concerning Candida albicans in the palate and in the dentures. There was a significant difference in patient satisfaction between Group I, the lowest, and the other groups, whereas there was no significant difference between Groups II and III.

conclusionCompared with the other groups, the nano-ZrO

trial registrationThe trial was registered in the Clinical Trials Registry under the number NCT06921577 on 10/04/2025 (retrospective registration).
