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

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of dentin pre-treatment with EDTA and silanization of glass fiber posts on the bond strength of different resin cements to root dentin. Material and Methods: Fifty-six extracted single-rooted human teeth received endodontic treatment and were restored with White Post DC (FGM) 0.5 fiber posts. Samples were divided into four groups: (1) Relyx U200 without EDTA, (2) Relyx U200 with EDTA, (3) Relyx ARC without EDTA, and (4) Relyx ARC with EDTA. Each group had a silane-treated subgroup (n=7). Root canals were prepared with Peeso reamer No. 3, leaving 4 mm of filling. Posts were cleaned with absolute alcohol (1 min) and air-dried (30 s). Silane was applied to half the posts for 60 s, then air-dried for 30 s. Specimens were mounted on acrylic plates with low-melting adhesive and sectioned using an Isomet saw (200 rpm, constant irrigation) and extra-fine diamond disc. Three slices (~1.5 mm thick) were obtained per tooth (coronal, middle, apical thirds). Thickness was measured with a digital caliper. Slices were positioned cervical side down in a 3.5 mm support matrix. A force was applied at 0.5 mm/min using a rod with a 0.8 mm extra-fine tip. Data were analyzed using Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Student's t-tests. Results: Relyx ARC showed higher bond strength than Relyx U200, regardless of silane or EDTA use. The combination of silane and EDTA did not significantly affect results (Relyx U200 Conclusions: EDTA and/or silane did not influence the bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin.
