Article in Journal of conservative dentistry and endodontics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Context: Given the need to balance safety and effectiveness issues with synthetic agents, herbal alternatives may offer advantages when employed as intracanal medicaments (ICMs). Aim: This randomized control trial assessed antimicrobial efficacy of triple antibiotic paste (TAP), 2% chlorhexidine (CHX) gel, and Bromelain paste as ICM against Settings and Design: This is randomized controlled clinical trial. Subjects and Methods: Twenty-four patients with nonvital teeth and single root canals were selected. Following initial access opening and biomechanical preparation, first microbial samples (S1) were collected using paper points. Patients were divided into three groups ( Statistical Analysis Used: The comparison of difference in CFU count among three groups was performed using the one-way ANOVA test ( Results: Reduction in CFU count postmedication S2 (S2a, S2b, and S2c) from S1 in each group was statistically significant. Reduction in CFU count was the highest in Group 3 (S2c) (Bromelain) (3.11 × 10 Conclusions: Bromelain showed the greatest reduction in
