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: Pulp capping is a vital dental procedure used to preserve the vitality of teeth affected by deep caries lesions without irreversible pulpitis. The use of modern bioceramic materials has enhanced the predictability of vital pulp therapy. Aim: This study aimed to assess the clinical success of two calcium silicate-based cements (NeoPUTTY and e-MTA Putty) as pulp capping materials for indirect pulp capping in carious primary teeth. Materials and methods: Indirect pulp therapy (IPT) was performed on 52 deciduous molars in 26 patients presenting with deep carious lesions. The teeth were randomly assigned to two groups: NeoPUTTY (26 teeth) and e-MTA Putty (26 teeth). Patients were monitored at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months posttreatment to evaluate the clinical success of the procedures. Statistical analysis: Statistical analysis was conducted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21.0. Pearson's Chi-square test was employed to compare success and failure rates between NeoPUTTY and e-MTA Putty at four different time intervals (30, 90, 180, and 365 days) and overall success and failure rates regardless of the time intervals. Results: The clinical success rate was similar in both NeoPUTTY and Kids e-MTA Putty in 1st month. In 3rd month, there was no significant difference in the distribution of clinical success between NeoPUTTY and Kids e-MTA Putty ( Conclusion: NeoPUTTY is clinically successful compared to Kids e-MTA Putty. Similarly, there is a consistent increase in radiographic dentin in NeoPUTTY compared to Kids e-MTA Putty. How to cite this article: Acharya S, Gurunathan D, Assiry AA, et al.
