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.

2 · The registry

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

aimhydraulic calcium silicate-based cements (HCSCs) are widely used in endodontics for vital pulp therapy and other clinical procedures due to their favorable physicochemical and biological properties. This study evaluates the biological properties of two HCSCs-MTA Flow™ and MTA Flow™ White (in a 3:2 liquid-to-powder ratio, thick consistency)-on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODOLOGY: hDPSCs were exposed to leachates from MTA Flow™, MTA Flow™ White, and ProRoot

resultsMTA Flow™ White and ProRoot

conclusionsMTA Flow™ and MTA Flow™ White, used in 3:2 thick consistency, demonstrated biocompatibility comparable to ProRoot
